Resumen:
Abiotic stresses are the foremost limiting factors for crop productivity. Crop plants need tocope with adverse external pressure caused by various environmental conditions with theirintrinsic biological mechanisms to keep their growth, development, and productivity.Climate-resilient, high-yielding crops need to be developed to maintain sustainable foodsupply. Over the last decade, understanding of the genetic complexity of agronomic traits insugarcane has prompted the integrated application of genetic engineering to addressspecific biological questions. Genes for adaptation to environmental stress and yieldenhancement traits are being determined and introgressed to develop elite sugarcanecultivars with improved characteristics through genetic engineering approaches. Here, wediscuss the advancement to provide a reference for future sugarcane (Saccharum spp.)genetic engineering.
