ABSTRACT

Food security is a situation that exists when all people, at all times, have physical, social and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life. India is facing the challenge to produce more and more from diminishing per capita arable land and irrigation water resources and expanding abiotic and biotic stresses. Genetically modified crops, insects, weeds and bacteria gave a new hope in meeting the food productivity challenges such as crop production, disease management, crop resistance and nutrient deficiency. Some of the hazardous effects of genetically modified products cannot be ignored. But regulated methodologies and policies need to be taken upfront by balancing out the negative effects of GM and provide better solutions to meet the food requirements.

INTRODUCTION According to the World Development Report (1986), food security is a situation that exists when all people, at all times, have physical, social and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life (FAO, 2003). As the world population reaches a stage of more than six billion, to which India contributes one billion, the question regarding the future availability of food for all assumes some importance (http://www.yourarticlelibrary.com/essay/population-explosion-and-food-security-inindia/42503/).[1–3] Over 60 per cent of the Indian population continue to depend on agriculture and allied activities for their livelihood. Hence, growth of this sector is an essential perquisite for overall economic growth. Globally, India is the third largest producer of cereals, with only China and the USA

ahead of it (Swaminathan and Bhavani, 2015). According to Swaminathan (2009), India’s population is likely to reach 1.5 billion by 2030, the challenge facing the country is to produce more and more from diminishing per capita arable land and irrigation water resources and expanding abiotic and biotic stresses. India currently produces about 230 million tones of cereals to meet the needs of a population of 1.15 billion. It has been estimated that food production will need to increase by 70% by the year 2050 based on population growth particularly in countries with developing economies Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO, 2009). The number of countries and the populations within them far exceed those countries with more advanced economies as they include China, India and other populous Asian and African countries (Delaney, 2015). To reduce the demand-supply gap for food

A Short Note on Genetic Markers

Harpreet Kaur* Department of Microbiology, Lovely Professional University, Punjab, India

ABSTRACT

A genetic marker is characterized as a particular gene or DNA succession that produces a detectable trait with a known area on a chromosome and that can be utilized to study family and populace, recognizable proof of cells, species or individual Keywords: DNA, genetic, genome, sequence INTRODUCTION Genetic marker can likewise be portrayed as a variety (or a change that might emerge because of modification or transformation in the chromosome locus). It might be a short sequence of DNA, for instance single nucleotide polymorphism or SNP (genetic variation in a DNA arrangement that happens when a solitary nucleotide in a genome is modified; SNPs are generally thought to be point transformations that have been developmentally sufficiently fruitful to repeat in a critical extent of the number of inhabitants in an animal varieties), or a long sequence, for example, mini-satellites (is an area of DNA that comprises of a short arrangement of bases 10–60 bp). BACKGROUND Before, most living beings were restricted in gene mapping (is characterized as graphical representation of the game plan of qualities on a chromosome) by genetic markers these incorporates genes that interpret perceptible components, for instance blood classifications or seed shapes [1, 2]. Types of Genetic Markers There are various types of genetic markers that are regularly utilized: Simple Sequence Length

Polymorphism or SSLP: This is

utilized as a genetic marker with polymerase chain response or PCR (used to create various duplicates of DNA). It is a sort of polymorphism (is the presence of at least two types of people inside a similar creature animal groups) and rehashed arrangements in intergenic districts of DNA. Genetic variety between two people can be comprehended by utilizing length of SSLPs.

Restriction Fragment Length

Polymorphism or RFLP: It is a procedure that utilizations varieties in DNA sequences. In this strategy, sample of DNA is broken into small pieces with the assistance of restriction enzyme. At that point these small pieces will be isolated by lengths by gel electrophoresis (that isolates particles on the premise of their rate of development through a gel). RFLP is a critical apparatus in confining genes for genetic issue, genome mapping, finding of hazard for sickness, and paternity testing (is the utilization of genetic fingerprinting to figure out if two people have a biological parent-child relationship) [3].

Genetically Modified Food Can Be Harmful To Human Health: A Report

Rahul Sharma

Central University of Rajasthan, Ajmer, India BACKGROUND Genetically modified foods or GM foods, also genetically engineered foods, are sustenance’s delivered from living beings that have had changes brought into their DNA utilizing the strategies for Genetic building. Genetic engineering procedures take into consideration the presentation of new characteristics and additionally more noteworthy control over qualities than past strategies, for example, specific reproducing and change rearing. Business offer of genetically modified foods started in 1994, when Celgene initially promoted its unsuccessful Flavr Savrdelayed-aging tomato. Most sustenance alterations have principally centered on trade trims out popularity by ranchers, for example, soybean, corn, canola, and cotton. Genetically adjusted yields have been built for imperviousness to pathogens and herbicides and for better supplement profiles. GM domesticated animals have been produced, in spite of the fact that as of November 2013 none were available. There is a logical accord that right now accessible sustenance got from GM crops represents no more serious hazard to human wellbeing than routine nourishment, yet that every GM food should be tried on a case-by-case premise before presentation [1, 2]. Regardless, individuals from the general population are significantly less likely than researchers to see GM foods as protected. The legitimate and administrative status of GM foods fluctuates by nation, with a few countries banning or confining them, and others

allowing them with broadly varying degrees of control. Nonetheless, there are progressing open concerns identified with food safety, direction, naming, ecological effect, inquire about techniques, and the way that some GM seeds are liable to protected innovation rights claimed by enterprises. The genetically modified foods debate comprises of an arrangement of disagreements about the utilization of sustenance produced using genetically modified crops. The debate includes buyers, agriculturists, biotechnology organizations, legislative controllers, non-administrative associations, ecological and political activists and researchers. The real contradictions incorporate whether GM foods can be securely expended, hurt nature or potentially are sufficiently tried and directed. The objectivity of logical research and productions has been tested. Cultivating related debate incorporate the utilization and effect of pesticides, seed creation and utilize, reactions on non-GMO crops/ranches, and potential control of the GM food supply by seed organizations. The disputes have continued since GM supports were envisioned. They have had the media, the courts, neighborhood, commonplace and national governments and overall affiliations. Constantly Ill Humans Have Higher Glyphosate Levels than Healthy Humans A new study out of Germany infers that Glyphosate buildup could achieve people and creatures through encourage and can

Profoundly Efficient Genome Engineering in Flowering Plants: A Report

Harpreet Kaur

Department of Microbiology, Lovely Professional University, Punjab, India Plant biologists have built up a genome altering strategy to knockout target genes in a model plant with high proficiency. The group reports another CRISPR/Cas9 vector for the model plant that can firmly incite inheritable mutations. This strategy is relied upon to end up distinctly an intense molecular instrument for genome designing in different plant species. The genome comprises of the life form's entire arrangement of DNA, including its genes, which contains all the data expected to create and keep up the organism. Genome engineering, which includes particular adjustment of parts of the genome by evacuating, including and changing segments of the DNA arrangement, is a rapidly developing. As such, the CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats)/Cas9 (CRISPR-related protein 9) framework is a standout amongst the most prominent genetic manipulation emerging from its effortlessness, adaptability and proficiency. In any case, the mutation inducing efficiency of CRISPR/Cas9 towards the model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana, has remained to some degree low as such. This is because they trigger for gene mutation is enacted at later formative stages in cells. Consequently, a lot of time, exertion and plant species has been required to get the wanted plant species with the focused on gene knocked out. CRISPR/Cas9 comprises of 2 key molecules, a bit of RNA called direct

RNA (gRNA) and a chemical called Cas9. Cas9 goes about as a molecular scissor that can cut both strands of DNA at a particular location in the genome, so DNA sequences can be included or expelled at that position. Then again, the gRNA comprises of a pre-designed RNA arrangement (around 20 bases in length) that is situated inside a more drawn out RNA framework. The RNA platform ties to DNA and the pre-composed RNA succession manages the Cas9 protein to the particular part of the genome, so that Cas9 can cut at the focused on position. "By utilizing a promoter for a RIBOSOMAL PROTEIN S5A (RPS5A) gene, which is expressed from early embryonic stages in plant cells, we could instigate the Cas9 protein to knockout genes in egg cells with high effectiveness," says Hiroki Tsutsui, the primary author of this review. "This RPS5A promoter is dynamic in egg cells and we chose to call this molecular tool, a pKAMA-ITACHI Red (pKIR) vector, which can alter the plant's genome in high productivity in respect to the 35S promoter regularly utilized as a part of plants," he proceeds. 'Kama-itachi' has the Japanese significance of three weasel-like animals, where the principal weasel targets and treks a man, trailed by the second one harming the individual by cutting them, and the third one recuperating the individual. This is like the procedure of the CRISPR/Cas9 framework towards DNA, where CRISPR targets, Cas9 cuts,

Pros and Cons of Genetically Modified Foods

Tejas Dhoble Department of Biotechnology, Dr. B. Lal Institute of Biotechnology, Jaipur, India

BACKGROUND Genetically modified (GM) foods are life forms that have had new qualities added to themselves from other organisms. Being around since 1994, they are delivered in a way that is fundamentally the same as genetic engineering. The strategy utilized as a part of this type of crop management has been acquainted with guarantee ranchers and dealers can improve crop or food quality in a more effective manner. A few people arrogate that this innovation will help those in the farming business diminish the measure of squandered products and foods. In any case, while there are many advantages of genetically modified foods, there are additionally potential downsides that are available [1]. Here are their favorable circumstances and burdens. VARIOUS PROS OF GENETICALLY MODIFIED FOODS Insect Resistance Some GMO sustenance’s have been changed to make resistant to insects and other pests. A report from the University of California in San Diego states that harmful microscopic organisms (yet alright for human utilize) can be added to products to make them repel insects. This implies the measure of pesticide chemicals utilized on the plants is lessened, so their introductions to hazardous pesticides are additionally diminished. More Grounded Crops Another advantage that GM innovation is accepted to realize is that harvests can be engineered to withstand climate extremes and changes, which implies that there will

be great quality and adequate yields even under a poor or serious climate condition. As populaces over the world develop and more terrains are being used for lodging rather than food production, ranchers are incited to develop trims in areas that are initially not reasonable for plant cultivation, and refined plants that can withstand high salt substance in soil and groundwater, also long stretches of dry season, will help them develop healthy crops [2]. Likewise, animals and plants that have been genetically modified can turn out to be more impervious to startling disease problems. We can simply think about the innovation as a vaccine for the species, aside from that it is encoded into their qualities, as opposed to being shot into their immune system. Bigger Production It has been less demanding to raise trims that are named genetically modified on the grounds that the greater part of their illustrations have the more grounded capacity to resist pests. This characteristic helps ranchers with delivering more noteworthy measures of products or foods. Natural Protection The increase of GM animals and harvests regularly requires less time, devices and chemicals, and may help with greenhouse gas emissions, soil erosion and environmental pollution. This implies the general wellbeing and excellence of the environment that encompasses ranches will be enhanced, adding to the conservation of better water and air quality, which can likewise in a
