Advancing Forage Crops Through Modern Breeding Strategies
Received Date: Sep 01, 2025 / Published Date: Sep 29, 2025
Abstract
This compilation of studies underscores critical advancements in forage crop breeding, emphasizing enhanced nutrition, yield, and resilience. Techniques like genomic selection, marker-assisted selection, and CRISPR-Cas9 are accelerating the development of superior forage varieties. Research focuses on drought tolerance, plant microbiome interactions, nutritional quality improvement in alfalfa, and polyploid breeding strategies. Addressing climate change impacts and understanding genetic diversity are crucial for developing climate-resilient and adaptable cultivars. The research covers perennial ryegrass, tall fescue, switchgrass, and lucerne, contributing to improved feed security and sustainable agricultural practices.
