    Wheat and Barley Grain Biofortification addresses topics associated with the alleviation of malnutrition in globally diverse populations via wheat and barley biofortification. The book synthesizes the current trends of malnutrition across the globe, the need for wheat and barley nutritional enhancement and how agronomic, microbial and molecular understanding of biofortification can help in devising significant approaches and strategies. In addition, it includes discussions on potential genetic variability available and their efficient utilization in wheat and barley for molecular breeding for nutrients, challenges and opportunities for bioavailability, and technical advancement for analysis of bioavailability.


    Key Features:
    ✓ Addresses the need for wheat and barley biofortification to address global nutrition demands
    ✓ Places emphasis on the current agronomic and molecular understanding of biofortification
    ✓ Discusses the potential utilization of genetic variability
    ✓ Highlights the economics of biofortification over fortification technology

    Readership:
    Researchers in both wheat and barley/cereal science and those exploring means of enhancing nutritional value of foods.
