Abstract
Improving photosynthetic efficiency for greater crop yield has been a topic critically discussed as a strategy to meet the demands of an increasing human population when the availability of arable land decreases. Climate changes together with disease can highly affect photosynthetic efficiency in oil palm and thus impact yield. In this chapter, we discuss the deployment and contribution of Omics platforms in photosynthesis research (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics and phenomics) for yield enhancement through breeding selection and planting strategies.
