Fingerprinting bioinformatics pipeline cuts seed purity testing from days to clicks
A new bioinformatics-powered tool developed by CIMMYT is transforming seed purity testing by delivering fast, automated, and scalable genetic verification for dryland crops, empowering breeders and seed systems across Africa
Network develops optimized breeding pipelines for accelerated genetic gains in dryland crops
The Africa Dryland Crop Improvement Network (ADCIN), NARES, and CGIAR scientists in Africa optimized quantitative genetic criteria for breeding programs and breeding strategies and pipelines for chickpea, pigeon pea, groundnut, sorghum, pearl-millet, and finger millet crops.
