Course Outcome
- To develop presentation skills among students.
- Presentation and discussion by each student on current
topics/interests in vegetable production and improvement.
- Teacher: Dr. Shipra Singh Parmar@soag
This practical covers essential plant breeding techniques for vegetable crops. It includes the use of a vegetable breeder’s kit, selfing and crossing methods, and floral biology studies of crops like cucurbits, cauliflower, carrot, radish, beetroot, and onion. Students also explore advanced breeding techniques such as CMS systems, polyploidy induction, and mutation breeding. Additionally, screening methods for abiotic stress, disease, and insect resistance, as well as molecular marker techniques, are studied. A visit to breeding blocks provides hands-on exposure to real-world breeding practices.
- Teacher: Dr. Shipra Singh Parmar@soag
