CRISPR Technology for Combating Plant Pests and Pathogens improves the understanding of CRISPR-mediated crop protection, presenting innovative strategies for developing disease-resistant crops that can withstand a variety of biotic stresses.

In agricultural food production, a range of stressors continues to challenge crop production globally. Fortunately, modern crop breeding approaches have developed rapidly, including the promising technology of plant genome editing. Leading to improvements in disease resilience or stress-tolerant crops, CRISPR/Cas9 is among the mainstream genome editing technologies for plant breeding precision and efficiency.

CRISPR Technology for Combating Plant Pests and Pathogens offers in-depth summaries curated by leading experts and professors in the field of agricultural biotechnology, providing the essential knowledge needed to advance research and applications in crop resilience.

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.
