Introduction to the range of molecular techniques to investigate unique facets of plant growth, development, and responses to the environment Plant Genomics introduces the complex relationship between the genome, microbiome, genes, and epigenetics of plants, as well as the range of molecular techniques applicable to investigating the unique facets of plant growth, development, and response to the environment. State-of-the-art science in the field is discussed, as well as future outlooks on what the next decade is likely to bring. This book includes new techniques for modifying the plant genome and their impact on modifying plants to combat the impact of biotic and abiotic stresses, including those associated with climate change, new technologies including long and short read sequencing and proximity ligation and the combination of these technologies for assembling sequence data into chromosomes, a new chapter on the sequences of the chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes, and a dedicate
