Alvarez, José Manuel; Ordás, Ricardo Javier
- Abstract
This document discusses the application of plant biotechnology in forestry. It highlights the importance of forests as diverse ecosystems and providers of ecological services and raw materials. The global demand for wood and its derivatives is increasing, and biotechnological tools such as genomic selection, micropropagation, and genetic engineering offer potential solutions to meet this demand while minimizing environmental impact. The document explores the challenges and opportunities of using biotechnology in forest regeneration and breeding, and presents research findings and insights from experts in the field. The objective of the document is to promote sustainable solutions that balance the need for forest resources with the preservation of ecosystems.
