The Impact of Biotechnology on Mango Enhancement: Exploring Genetic Engineering and Molecular Markers

The impact of biotechnology on mango enhancement, particularly through genetic engineering and molecular markers, has been significant. Biotechnology revolutionized the field agriculture, offering innovative tools techniques for improving crop traits. In case mangoes, involves manipulation organism's DNA to introduce or modify specific genes, targeting traits such as disease resistance, fruit quality, yield. This approach led development varieties with enhanced resistance pests diseases, improved flavour aroma, increased productivity. Similarly, marker-assisted selection (MAS) utilizes markers identify select plants desired traits, bypassing need time-consuming costly phenotypic evaluations. MAS accelerated breeding programs, enabling superior cultivars By exploring in improvement, we gain insights into their potential address key challenges cultivation meet consumer demands.
