Molecular breeding for higher productivity, quality, food colorants, nutraceutical and bioactive health compounds in vegetable crops

7 Sep 2017

OBJECTIVE The objective of the course is to impart advanced training on breeding for higher productivity and industry suitable food colorants and bioactive health compounds in vegetable crop plants through employing conventional and molecular approaches. [...] ABOUT THE COURSE The course includes theory lectures as well as practical classes including participants exposure to the modern laboratories for quality extraction, isolation procedures and analytical methodologies, molecular approaches in order to develop trained personnel capable of carrying out the molecular crop breeding activities independently. [...] The course will also provide an opportunity to the participants to interact with subject-experts and fellow workers from different parts of the country and update themselves with the latest information in the field of conventional breeding (selection procedures and handling of segregating populations) and cutting edge technologies (allele mining, molecular markers, marker assisted breeding and rec. [...] HOW TO APPLY Application for participation in the Winter School in the given format and forwarded by the competent authority of the institute should be sent the Course Director at the address given below. [...] EVALUATION The participants will evaluate the course programme for the quality of contents, suitability and usefulness to the target clientele through well designed questionnaire.
