Abstract:

The aims of presentations consist of plant science, plant genomics, south Asia, poverty and hunger which were studied in order to find out the role of plant science and plant genomics on improvement of health, poverty and hunger in the developing countries of the world like South Asia. Plant science is the major branch of agriculture consist of various agro based industries like biochemistry, biotechnology, nutrition, breading, production, nursery and floriculture, environmental science, produce specific food including cereals, fruits, vegetables, meats, fiber. A genomic is the genetic materials of an organism. It consist of DNA (or RNA in RNA viruses). The genomic includes both the genes the noncoding DNA and genetic materials of the mitochondria and chloroplasts. Genomic is an area within genetics that concerns the sequencing and analysis of an organism genome. Genetic is the study of single genes and their role in the way traits or condition are passed from one generation to the next. Genomic is a term that describes the study of all parts of an organism genes. South Asia comprises the countries of Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, Bhutan, Maldives, Nepal, and Sri-Lanka. South Asia is about one fifth of the world’s population, which is considered as the most densely populated region in the world. Similarly, all the agro based industries of plants science and genomic produced the quality food production, absorbing millions of technical and nontechnical people, generate income, create employment, reducing poverty and hunger in the world. In the light of above study, it is proposed to commercialize all the industries of plant science and genomics in the developing countries of the world like South Asia.
