ICAR-NBPGR scientists designate a core set (247 accessions) as well as a mini-core set (30 accessions) of rice germplasm originating from India’s East Coast comprising Andhra Pradesh, Orissa & Tamil Nadu (2,242 rice accessions) using 36 SNP markers. journal.frontiersin.org/article/10.338…

The diverse core set panel will be a useful genetic resource for allele mining of biotic and abiotic traits as well as managing the genetic diversity of the coastal rice collection.

ICAR-NBPGR researchers develop for the first time genome wide SSR markers in Bunium persicum. Markers are expected to facilitate the diversity studies, population assessment & breeding in Bunium persicum (Kala jeera), a valuable medicinal spice plant. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Happy to share our much-awaited paper in the Journal of Experimental Botany Transgene-free genome editing supports CCD4 role as a negative regulator of β-carotene in banana academic.oup.com/jxb/advance-ar…

Carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase4 (RAS-CCD4) gene was identified by BRIC-NABI as a promising candidate for its role in β-carotene degradation. DOI: doi.org/10.1093/jxb/er… Dr Jitendra Singh Rajesh Gokhale

What is this? Is it next wave in Europe?
