Plant Genomics Market Overview
Global Plant Genomics reached USD 8.1 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach USD 14.7 billion by 2030 and grow with a CAGR of 7.8% during the forecast period 2023-2030. Crop protection may be enhanced as plant genomics advances by reducing mycotoxin contamination in plants and allowing crops to tolerate high temperatures.
There is a need for an increase in plant productivity, creating a demand for balanced food security and a bio-based economy to enhance food security. According to the data published by the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification, around 20-30% of the earth’s vegetated surface is declining due to the loss of vegetative cover. This resulted in a need to find alternative scientific methods to improve the vegetation cover.
The growing demand for high-yielding, stress-tolerant crops, and genetic manipulation approaches drive the growth of the global plant genomics market. The need for crop productivity enhancement, improved disease resistance, and the development of genetically modified crops are boosting the plant genomics market expansion.

Plant Genomics Market Dynamics
The Increasing Application of Genomics in Plant Breeding Drives the Growth of the Global Plant Genomics Market.
The availability of genomic tools and resources leads to a new revolution in plant breeding, as they facilitate the study of the genotype and its relationship with the phenotype, particularly for complex traits. Next-generation sequencing technologies allow mass genomic sequencing and transcriptomes, producing vast genomic information.
The analysis of NGS data employing bioinformatics developments allows the discovery of new genes, regulatory sequences, and their positions and makes extensive collections of molecular markers available. Marker Assisted Breeding is advantageous for complex traits. The genomic mapping improves plant comparative genomics and helps in plant breeding applications.
Increasing Demand for Genetically Modified Crops is Driving Plant Genomics Market Growth
Genetically modified crops are incorporated with beneficial traits. They are resistant to insect damage and are tolerant to herbicides. So, farmers can apply fewer spray pesticides to protect the crops and help farmers control weeds without damaging the crops. Proteomics and metabolomics are immensely helpful in producing a better profitable crop. Most gentle etically modified crops grown today enveloped farmers to prevent crop loss.
They can help foods become more accessible and affordable for consumers. Genomic variation and functional genomics are used in producing genetically modified crops. Some of these crops were explicitly developed to benefit consumers. For example, a genetically modified soybean used to create a healthier oil is commercially grown and available.
The High Cost of Plant Genomics and Concerns Related to Environment Pollution are Restraining the Plant Genomics Market Growth
Plant genomics remains critical in ensuring scientific progress to secure global food security. There is an increase in the high sequencing costs and availability of analytical tools, making it costlier to trials. Trials have increased production in the range of 14.0% to 30.0%. The best genomes now represent the highest input cost to growers and up to 80% of the gross margin products of the technology companies that produce them.
The rising costs of plant genomics are impacting the market’s growth negatively. Shifts in ecosystems that lead to creating or destroying interactions among species can have major significant fences. For example, pathogens no longer kept in check by standard weather patterns in their endemic regions can expand their geographic sphere, reaching new unexposed populations. Also, rising health and environmental concerns are hindering the plant genomics market.
Plant Genomics Market Segmentation Analysis
The global plant genomics market is segmented based on type, trait, application, and region.
In the Global Plant Genomics Market, the Cereals/ Grains Segment Holds the Largest Market Share
The global plant genomics market has been segmented by application into cereals/ grains, oilseeds/ pulses, fruits/ vegetables, and others. The cereals/ grains segment held the largest plant genomics market share of 38.4% in 2022 in the plant genomics market analysis report. The increased focus on cereals/ grains in plant genomics increases the segment’s growth.
Adopting modern plant sequencing techniques has been extensive in developed countries for crops such as corn and wheat. The growth in adopting various molecular breeding types, such as molecular engineering and genetic engineering tools, would increase crop performance to gain better market prices.
Plant Genomics Market Geographical Share
