3. Crop improvement refers to the genetic alteration of plants to satisfy human needs. Crop improvement refers
to the ways of developing and breeding of crop varieties which are better than the pre-existing cultivars in a
number of characters like taste, height and colour for a better yield.
Crop improvement can be defined as an art, science and technology of improving the genetic make up of
plants in relation to their economic use for the man kind. (Darbani et al., 2007)
Crop Improvement-
4. Crop improvement- Why it is important??
Highly productivity with good quality fruits
Regular, precocious and prolific bearing.
Dwarfing stature of tree to utilize vertical and horizontal spaces
Wide geographical adaptability
Possess strong root system
Compatibility with scion stock union joint
Good processing, keeping and transport quality.

fleshed 'Kapoho’.
58. Fast Track Breeding
• Fast Track utilizes genetic engineering strategies for inducing early flowering that produces generation cycles of one year or
less.
• Introgression of resistance genes from wild species by hybridization with early flowering transgenic line.
• Selection of early flowering seedlings carrying the trait of interest (resistance gene) using molecular markers for further
back crossing.
• Repeated back crossing until the linkage drag is minimized and desired parental traits are combined in a seedling population.
• The final progeny (null segregant) released for commercial use must not carry early flowering transgene.
• Technology has the potential to integrate into existing breeding programs and addresses its limitations and vulnerabilities.
• Hypothesis was first time proposed in Poplar.
• The proof of concept was first time provided in Apple using transgenic apple plants over expressing the BpMADS4 (Flachowsky
et al., 2007).
• Fast Track fruit tree breeding are currently being applied to other perennial tree fruits such as plum and citrus (Rodriguez et al.,
2014).

traditional breeding and biotechnology can play fundamental role in fruit crop improvement.
• Recent improvements have decreased the cost of different sequencing techniques while increasing their throughput
analyses. To use of rootstock developing to biotic and abiotic resistance plant. Greater efforts are required to make
improvement upon the traditional varieties.
• Genetic engineering can make a substantial contribution to improved nutrition in crops.
• Transfer gene for disease resistance, abiotic stress resistance and many other quality character.
• The current study encompasses the applications of numerous markers systems used to assess genetic diversity on
DNA basis in fruit crops. Molecular markers are able to enhance the effectiveness of breeding new and adapted
cultivars in terms of time and cost.
• Fruit breeding requires more time compared to other crops due to long juvenile phase, high level of heterozygosity
and self-incompatibility between cultivars. Conclusively, MAS plays a significant role in the construction of high-
density molecular marker maps of fruit crops.
