“Bioprospecting of Genes and Allele Mining for Abiotic Stress Tolerance"
Expected Output
- A knowledge database on genes and alleles identified in the target microbe, plant, animal and fish species
- Well characterized germplasm in rice, maize, sorghum, Cucumis, Lathyrus and Ziziphus
- Information on nature of tolerance, physiology and genetic variation for tolerance to abiotic stress in less studied species such as Lathyrus, Ziziphus, camel, goat, shrimp and catfish
- New genomic resources, functionally validated new genes and alleles, and genetic stocks in target species for abiotic stress tolerance
- A pool of trained human resources and state-of-art infrastructure to handle large scale genotyping of germplasm
- Novel methodologies and algorithms, and capacity building in statistical and computational genomics
