R. K. Yelutala Breeding program, genomics markers, hybrid oil palm, semi clonal seeds, univanich 19-20 Volume 1 (2) March, 2025 Plant breeding today uses advanced genomics, molecular markers, and genomic selection for faster, more precise trait improvement, tackling challenges like climate change and nutrition, while tomorrowand#39;s breeding will see even deeper integration of and#39;omicsand#39; data, AI-driven predictions, gene editing (like CRISPR) for rapid trait development, and highly specialized breeding services, leading to hyper-efficient, tailored crops for diverse environments, though cost and access remain key factors.
