5th Edition
by Kimball Nill (Author)
The 5th edition of Glossary of Biotechnology and Agrobiotechnology Terms
will be a significant expansion of the previous 4th edition. In the
past decade, many new terms have been introduced due to the appearance
and application of new crop plant breeding methods as well as technical
advances in genetics, molecular biology, cell biology and agricultural
research. The terms associated with important new technologies have been
added to this new edition including terms related to Zinc Finger
Proteins, Transcription Activator-Like Effectors (TALEs), TALE
Nucleases, Genome Editing, CRISPR/Cas 9 Gene-editing Systems,
Oligonucleortide-mediated Mutagenesis, and RNA Interference, as well as
hundreds of others. The 5th edition, like previous editions, will be
useful for regulators of agricultural biotechnology around the world,
customers, biotech patent officials, venture capitalists, and agbiotech
company executives, as well as biopharmaceutical industries and
academics.
