Master's Thesis Research Project - Developing novel approaches for climate-adaptive agriculture
Climate change poses significant challenges to agricultural productivity, requiring innovative breeding strategies that combine plant and animal approaches. This research addresses the urgent need for climate-resilient agricultural systems through integrated breeding methodologies.
Comprehensive analysis of climate stress patterns including temperature extremes, drought conditions, and precipitation variability across different agro-ecological zones.
Advanced genomic analysis to identify genetic markers associated with climate resilience traits across multiple species.
Development of novel breeding strategies that integrate plant and animal improvement approaches for whole-system climate resilience.
Holistic assessment of plant-animal interactions under climate stress
Simultaneous improvement of complementary traits across species
Multi-environment testing and performance assessment
