Epigenetics and the Engineering of Plant Varieties with Breakthrough Yield
В. А. Драгавцев · Technical Physics · 2022
Abstract Based on the discovery of a new epigenetic phenomenon (in the course of implementation of the DIAS program) that consists in changing the range (set) of gene products with respect to the productivity upon changing the limiting factor of the environment, a theory of “ecological-genetic” organization of a quantitative trait is created and developed, from which 20 new biological and quantitatively predictable consequences, 10 forms of practice, and 16 innovative technologies for designing plant varieties with breakthrough yields are derived. With the use of these technologies, four varieties of grain varieties that give a high economic effect have been created. The physical instruments and equipment necessary for more efficient creation of new productive crops are described.
