Abstract
Conventional breeding suffers setbacks for genetic improvement of sugarcane owing to its large complex genome, rare flowering, low fertility, long breeding cycle and complex environmental interactions. However, production of transgenic plants can be a better alternative to improve quality traits and resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses. In this pursuit, the authors presented a detailed review of current strategies of genetic transformation in sugarcane using a number of important candidate genes.
