DEPARTMENT OF GENETICS AND PLANT BREEDING

About the Department:

Genetics and Plant Breeding is prime department at Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda engage in teaching, research, and extension activitiescame into existence in 2010. The main mandate of the department is to impart quality teaching to under-graduate and post-graduate& doctoral students. The department has highly qualified faculty with doctoral and post-doctoral research experience in the current areas of Genetics and Plant Breeding and Seed Science.Department has initiated research activities to develop climate resilient high yielding varieties with resistance/tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses and to produce good quality seeds mainly in pulses, oilseed, cereals and millet crops suited to Bundelkhand region. The department has completed 11 research projects and currently the department has 12 research and development projects, 7 AICRPs and 7 collaborative research programmes. Under the collaborative research effort from faculty of the department and AICRP, one variety in sesame, BUAT Til-1 and three in linseed, BUAT Alsi-3, BUAT Alsi-4 and BUAT Alsi-5 has been released. Four potential genotypes as donors for linseed bud flyresistanthave also been registered. Faculty members of the department also have active participation in various extension activities likepopularization and transfer of technology programmes through frontline field demonstrations (FLD’s), Farmers Fair, Scientist-farmer’s interaction &Farmers Trainings etc.The PG programme of Department is accredited by ICAR, New Delhi with ‘A’ grade.
