Molecular diagnostics in plants involves the application of molecular biology techniques to detect and characterize plant pathogens, genetic disorders, and trait markers. Techniques such as PCR, sequencing, and gene editing are employed to ensure plant health and improve crop production. This approach allows for the early detection of diseases, enabling timely intervention and reducing crop losses. Furthermore, molecular diagnostics can assist in breeding programs by identifying desirable genetic traits and ensuring that plants meet regulatory standards. The integration of these diagnostics into agricultural practices supports sustainable farming by enhancing plant health and productivity.
