  abstract = {"Smart breeding", sometimes also called "clever breeding" or
"precision breeding". stands for methodical alternatives to genetic
engineering in modern plant breeding. Classical methods - such as
crossbreeding of different parent varieties and Subsequent selection of
progeny - are combined with novel molecular biological approaches.
Smart breeding uses molecular-biological methods (e.g. gene mapping,
mutagenesis) to characterize initial plants with desirable breeding
properties. Methods of vegetable tissue culturing and subsequent
regeneration of intact plants essentially reduce the steps among
classical crossbreeding, selection of desirable breeding results and
subsequent propagation. The breeding targets, such as e.g. resistance
to diseases and pest infestation, stress tolerance (e.g. against
dryness, salt, heat) or changed components (e.g. fatty acid pattern)
are lastly achieved by means of classical breeding, i.e. by combination
of suitable parent varieties, thus leading to useful, not genetically
engineered plants.},
