With utilizing new molecular tools and also analyzing interested genes at genome level with omics technologies, these modern techniques allow plant breeders to understand gene functions and genetic response of plants to different biotic and abiotic stresses and also rapid introgression of desired genes in their genetic material with reducing linkage drags. Furthermore, plant breeders could gather together many desired genes with gene pyramiding and also accelerate plant breeding programs to develop high yielding quality varieties. © 2020 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
