Project Overview
Validation of trait specific germplasm accessions and development of inbreds for early maturity, high oil and high yield. Introgression of resistance to Alternariaster helianthi through conventional and
biotechnological tools. Identification of physiologically efficient lines and lines tolerant to temperature and water logging. Validation of trait specific germplasm for resistance to Alternariaster helianthi, SND and powdery mildew and development of inbreds for disease resistance. Incorporation of leaf hopper resistance in promising inbreds
