The aim of laboratory of Genetics & Plant Breeding is the education of under and postgraduate students for understanding the modern conventional and biotechnological approaches on Plant Breeding and Seed production of Field Crops. More specifically, focused on Breeding analysis design, molecular and organic breeding, chromosome engineering and use of mutations and GMO production. Also, offer the basic knowledge on plant propagation technology. Seed physiology, ecology, technology and seed storage, artificial seed and Seed improvement techniques (Priming, pelting) and.processing (cleaning, scarification, sizing, and coating). Research study on grafting in vegetable crops.
