    abstract = {<p>Modern agriculture should be able to support the world&#39;s rising population, which is estimated to rise from 7.3 billion in 2015 to at least 9.8 billion by 2050. To feed all of these people, food production should have to increase by 60‐70%. However, plant diseases remain the most challenging tasks for plant breeders to achieve these goals. To address these issues, many researchers are still investigating the mechanisms plants defend themselves against disease. Traditional and modern plant breeding practices have played a critical role in guaranteeing food security. However, isolation possibilities for resistance factors are currently limited in traditional breeding programs. Thus, modern plant breeding techniques can be used to select, or in the case of genetic modification, to insert desirable features into plants, using molecular biology techniques. Marker assisted selection, transgenic techniques, RNA interference technologies, tissue culture and CRISPR/cas9 genome editing approaches are the modern plant breeding tools that provide resistance to plant diseases. Here, we attempt to discuss the basic concepts and characteristics of modern plant breeding as well as how modern technologies might be effectively investigated to promote crop<br />
improvement in the face of increasing challenging plant production conditions.</p>
