Plant Nutritional Genomics provides a timely overview of plant nutritional genomics, which is defined as the interaction between a plant's genome and its nutritional characteristics. Optimising mineral nutrition during crop production is vital to reducing the use on chemical inputs, to producing healthy agricultural produces with superior nutritional composition, and to increasing crop resistance to pests and diseases. The judicious selection and breeding of fit-for-purpose varieties of crops will play a huge role in ...

Plant Nutritional Genomics provides a timely overview of plant nutritional genomics, which is defined as the interaction between a plant's genome and its nutritional characteristics. Optimising mineral nutrition during crop production is vital to reducing the use on chemical inputs, to producing healthy agricultural produces with superior nutritional composition, and to increasing crop resistance to pests and diseases. The judicious selection and breeding of fit-for-purpose varieties of crops will play a huge role in meeting these objectives, and advances in plant nutritional genomics will allow the full potential of crop selection and breeding strategies to be realized.
