This edited book covers the application of modern genomics tools for developing climate-smart oilseed cultivars. The book's prime focus is on utilizing available oilseed genomic resources and application of next-generation genetics and breeding tools, viz. genome-wise association mapping, genomic selection, genome editing and accelerated breeding pipelines and their efficacy for rapid development and delivery of stress-resilient oilseeds cultivars. Oilseeds are crucial for human and animal nutrition and cater to diverse industrial applications. Besides oil content, the oilseed meal possesses proteins and a higher proportion of essential amino acids, which benefit human well-being. Additionally, the contribution of oilseeds towards renewable energy mitigates the risk of climate change by reducing carbon footprint. Hence, it is imperative to enhance oilseeds production from the current 178 to 282 million tons by 2050 to meet the demands of both the population and the environment. The current genomics era delivered various genomic resources in oilseed crops, which resulted in the discovery of genes for several agronomic and stress-resilience traits and resistance to pests and…
