Gene editing tools are increasingly seen as options for improving plant health and productivity. CRISPR is one such emerging and quickly advancing crucial technology for the research field of plant physiology, plant molecular biology, and crop breeding. CRISPR for Climate-Smart and Sustainable Agriculture focuses on genetic engineering using CRISPR technology for precision breeding of crops to achieve climate resilience, stress tolerance, and higher yield. Organized by specific plant challenges, this book presents expert insights from around the globe, providing updated knowledge of CRISPR with an emphasis on facing climate change and supporting sustainable agriculture.
This volume in the Genome Modified Plants and Microbes in Food and Agriculture series will be valuable for researchers, academics, and advanced-level students seeking to understand and advance the use of CRISPR technologies toward the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Climate Agreement.
Jen-Tsung Chen is a Professor of Cell Biology at the National University of Kaohsiung in Taiwan. He teaches cell biology, genomics, proteomics, plant physiology, and plant biotechnology. His research spans bioactive compounds, chromatography techniques, plant molecular biology and biotechnology, bioinformatics, and systems pharmacology. An active book and journal editor, he serves on editorial boards and has guest-edited special issues for several international journals. Dr. Chen has authored and edited books with international publishers on diverse topics including drug discovery, herbal medicine, medicinal biotechnology, nanotechnology, bioengineering, plant functional genomics, plant speed breeding, CRISPR-based plant genome editing, and artificial intelligence. In 2023 and 2024, he was listed by Elsevier and Stanford University among the 'World’s Top 2% Scientists' and also received the Springer Nature Editor of Distinction Award in 2025.
