ROLE OF PLANT BREEDING TO MAINTAINING FOOD SECURITY IN THE FACE OF GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE

global warming, food crisis, plant breeding, genetic variationAbstract
As the global population expands and the number of individuals employed in agriculture rises, these elements exert an adverse influence on global production. Since crop output and population growth are not maintaining pace, it is becoming increasingly difficult to provide food for the world's expanding population, which is expanding geometrically while crop productivity is increasing arithmetically. Thus, plant breeding plays a key role in the development of high-yielding cultivars to ensure food security. Modern biotechnological techniques along with traditional plant breeding practices can speed up the laborious and lengthy process of variety development having high yields and quality.
