Amid a rapidly growing global population and increasing threats to crop yields, this review
focuses on Speed Breeding (SB) in crop genetics. It traces SB's development from carbon …

Breeding programs rely on light wavelength, intensity, and photoperiod for rapid success. In
this study, we investigated the ability of Ag/ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) to improve the …

The controlled environment ecosystem is a meticulously designed plant growing chamber
utilized for cultivating biofortified crops and microgreens, addressing hidden hunger and …

Drought is a global issue causing severe reductions in crop yields. The use of
nanobiotechnology to increase plant resistance to drought is widely reported. However, the …

The global demand for food is rising due to population growth, climate change, and evolving
consumer preferences. Traditional plant breeding programs typically require a decade or …

Speed breeding (SB) technology is an innovative solution to shorten the breeding cycle and
accelerate crop improvement. The key factors of plant growth and development, including …

Unlike other major crops, little research has been performed on tomato to reduce the
generation time for speed breeding. We evaluated several agronomic treatments to reduce …

Considering fast-changing environment, emerging pathogens, and the imminent need to
feed a global population that is predicted to increase to 9–10 billion people by the year …

Sweetness or sugar content, represented by soluble solids contents (SSC), is a vital quality
trait in watermelon breeding which can be assessed by the refractive index method …

Global agricultural productivity and food security are threatened by climate change, the
growing world population, and the difficulties posed by the pandemic era. To overcome …
