Project Overview

To develop wilt, gray mold and leafhopper resistant monoecious male lines with good combining ability, high oil and ricinoleic acid. To identify diverse sources and develop wilt and leafhopper resistant pistillate lines with good combining ability using recombination breeding techniques. To develop wilt and leaf hopper resistant, early, medium, late duration hybrids suitable for early, late kharif and rabi seasons in traditional and non-traditional castor growing states of the country
