10 Major Roles of Bioinformatics in Agriculture

                      Bioinformatics Roles in Agriculture

1. Bioinformatics organized the data of sequenced genome of plants more accurately and fast. Application of bioinformatics in agriculture with the help of mathematics, statistics, image processing, data mining, artificial intelligence, and computer simulation made research and innovation fastest in current era.
   
2. It developed various software to analyzed the data and collect the information from the data e.g., gene armada and babelomics etc.
3. Microarray analysis of gene expression also enhanced the progress of varietal development procedure.
4. Targeted gene identification, molecular phylo-genetics only became possible due to the bioinformatics. You can further details about biotechnology in https://practicalagrculture1214.blogspot.com/2020/08/10-real-breakthroughs-in-green.html?m=1 above link.
5. Bioinformatics is playing key role in structural, functional and nutritional genomics for plant breeding and genetics.
6. Evolutionary studies of plants became easy in Bioinformatics to understand the ancestral relationship of various plants species and their origin.
7. Bioinformatics works on model crop plants like Arabidopsis thaliana and suggest improvement in other food crops.
8. It has important function to identify, locate and biochemical function of genes in different organisms.
9. Aims related breeding like disease,insect pest resistance, drought resistance, salt resistance and improvement in nutritional quality enhanced very fast.
10. Statistics and mathematics application made bioinformatics immortal for the research in biotechnology and plant breeding.
