Genetics and Genomics-based Investigations to Enhance Abiotic Stress Tolerance in RiceFriday, 19 August 2016 at 15:50 Add to Calendar ▼2016-08-19 15:50:002016-08-19 16:50:00Europe/LondonGenetics and Genomics-based Investigations to Enhance Abiotic Stress Tolerance in RiceAgriGenomics India 2016 in New DelhiNew DelhiSELECTBIOenquiries@selectbiosciences.com In this talk, the presenter will discuss about their work on understanding the molecular basis of stress tolerance in rice using an OMICS-based approach including transcriptomics, proteomics, ionomics and metabolomics. Further, the talk will cover the identification and functional validation of key stress responsive genes, which may prove to be a suitable candidate for translational research. It will also discuss an alternative approach of mutagenesis used for improving rice production and varietal improvement in which generation of several mutant lines through gamma-irradiation and screening at seedling stage for different abiotic stress tolerance will be mentioned. |
