Abstract

Vegetable crops have been cultivated since they were domesticated. These are the principal source of nutrients required in the growth and development of human beings. Rapid advances in the methods of next-generation sequencing technology and high throughput genotyping protocols have resulted in the collection and publication of reference genomes of major vegetable species. The large-scale genetic resource reorganization strategy has revealed the process of vegetable crops domestication and improvement of the essential traits through breeding procedures. The utilization of genetic mapping strategies and identification of quantitative trait locus has resulted in the exploration of significant molecular markers linked to essential traits in vegetables. Furthermore, the genome-based breeding approach is employed in most important vegetable crops families, such as Solanaceae and Brassicaceae, and allowing molecular selection at the single-base level. As a result, genome-wide molecular markers are extensively used for efficient genotyping in most vegetable crops. Molecular breeding has emerged as a key method for vegetables. Besides this, genome editing technology can dramatically increase vegetable breeding efficiency. This chapter examines the current scenario of genome-based molecular breeding tactics and genome editing approaches employed in significant vegetable crops to give insights into next-generation molecular breeding for a growing global population.
