Abstract:
Genetic engineering can enhance crop yields by developing climate-resilient crop varieties. Nanobiotechnology plays a crucial role in precision delivery of genetic materials, nutrients, and stress-responsive agents into plant cells. This forum highlights recent advances in biodegradable protein-based nanocarrier systems for plant genome editing to transform agricultural practices.

Transgenic Plants
The first-ever transgenic plant was a tobacco plant developed in 1983 that showed resistance against the tobacco mosaic virus. Since then, many transgenic plants have been developed and commercialized for improving the agricultural, ornamental, and horticultural value of a crop plant. Transgenic...
