Crop improvement, disease resistance, yield enhancement, and climate adaptation strategies
Developing varieties with enhanced tolerance to drought, heat, salinity, and other environmental stresses
Incorporating resistance genes against major pathogens and pests through various breeding strategies
Enhancing yield potential through improved photosynthetic efficiency and resource utilization
Improving nutritional content, shelf life, and processing qualities of crop varieties
Wheat, rice, maize, barley breeding for yield and stress tolerance
Tomato, pepper, leafy greens for quality and disease resistance
Soybean, canola, sunflower for oil content and stress adaptation
Implementing controlled environment conditions and photoperiod manipulation to achieve 4-6 generations per year in major crops.
Developing and implementing genomic selection models for yield, quality, and stress tolerance traits across multiple crop species.
Utilizing drone imaging, sensor networks, and AI for precise phenotyping of large breeding populations.
