Abstract
Plant biotechnology has revolutionized traditional crop development and resulted in steady increase of the per hectare yields of cereals, agronomic performance, and disease resistance of new varieties in the past few decades. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the world’s total cereal production has increased from over 1900 million tons in 2002 to over 2300 million tons in 2012 (FAO 2013).
