Not Available ; Energy crisis has become a fundamental issue over mankind across the globe. To meet the energy demand for transport, blending of bioethanol with gasoline has been mandated in India like several other developing and developed countries. Moreover, in spite of urbanisation and industrial development, agriculture sector has long been the backbone of Indian economy. Currently in India, sugarcane molasses is being used for the production of bioethanol but cannot fulfil the demand of ethanol for blending targets. Therefore, the surplus crop residues may be explored for second-generation biofuel to meet the demand for alternative and renewable energy sources. However, the national policy on biofuels has no clear long-term mandated targets and penalties to ensure its successful execution. To safeguard the long-term sustainability and economic viability of Indian bioethanol market, it is indispensable to diversify the feedstock basket and gain insights from the reality of pilot-scale studies. India's present bioethanol production scenario can be boosted by introduction of new low-cost technology for the bioconversion of lignocellulosics. This chapter is a comprehensive analysis of the future of bioethanol market in India based on biomass availability, policy barriers and perspectives along with the possible solutions. ; Not Available

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merril] is the third most important oilseed crop after groundnut and rapeseed mustard in India. Narrow genetic base of the soybean varieties released in India is one of the most important cause of the low average national yields. To study the genetic base of the soybean varieties of India, the pedigree information of 66 released and notified soybean varieties of India from 1968-2000 was obtained from the Soybean Varieties of India [1] and from variety release/notification proposals and notification details published by Government of India from time to time. The formal soybean breeding in India started only after the initiation of All India Coordinated Research Project on Soybean (AICRPS) in 1968 by Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), can be conveniently looked at in 3 different phases i.e. 1968-1980, 1981-1990 and 1991-2000 (Table 1).
