The training will be imparted to ICAR-IISR scientists in the field of CRISPER Cas Genome Editing Technology for Soybean improvement.
The ICAR-Indian Institute of Soybean Research, Indore, Madhya Pradesh signed the Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) with the National Agri-Food Biotechnology Institute (NABI) and Centre of Innovative & Applied Bio-processing (CIAB), Mohali, Punjab under the Department of Biotechnology, Government of India.
The following are the main areas of the collaboration envisioned:
- The training of ICAR-IISR Scientists in the field of CRISPER Cas Genome Editing Technology for Soybean improvement.
- Development of Sensor-based Technology for detection and quantification of microbes in bio-fertilizer formulations.
- Encapsulation of bacteria in hydrogel and characterization of its efficacy & stability using the Sensor-based Technology.
- Isolation and characterization of Triacontanol as bio-stimulant for Soybean production.
- Estimation of Kunitz Trypsin inhibitor in the recently released Soybean varieties.
- Characterization of Soybean food products for its shelf-life and storability. to mutually benefit from the strengths of the respective Institutions .
