4. Research area.
• Cotton is grown worldwide in more than 80 countries on 32–34 million
hectares with annual total production of 25.65 million metric tons
(MMTs; United States Department of Agriculture [USDA] Report, 2013)
• One of the main economic resources. Annually brings an average of
~$0.9 to 1.2 billion economic income
• Accounts for roughly 11% of the Uzbekistan's GDP in 2009
• One million hectares each year is covered by cotton
Main missions:
1. Development of modern breeding programs such as gene and cell
engineering, marker-assisted and genomic selections, and virtual
breeding;
2. Development of modern breeding programs such as gene and cell
engineering, marker-assisted and genomic selections, and virtual
breeding;
5. RNA interference (RNAi), is a powerful new technology in the discovery of
genetic sequence functions, and has become a valuable tool for functional
genomics of cotton (Gossypium sp.).
For the first time, a gene knock-out technology in cotton was developed with
successful silencing of genes responsible for flowering and fiber quality
traits. Using this technology, a number of varieties (Porloq-1, 2, 3 and 4) with
improved fiber quality, early maturity and high fiber yield have been
developed.

8. Transgenomics and tissue culture Lab
Prezident of the Korea Women Inventors
Association, Dr. Insil Lee
Ubaydullayeva Xurshida, Ph.D
Head of Lab
9. • T&TC laboratory missions
• The large scale production of ornamental plants.
• For the induction of polyploidy, by treating plants with of
antimitotic agents such as colchicine.
• To produce virus free plants from virus-infected stock,
such as potatoes by culturing meristem/tip culture.
Transgenomics and tissue culture Lab
But the center of G&B has a high interest in increasing the
research horizon of T&TC Lab. In the case of that to study
and to have interaction with Korean colleagues in the
field of
- production of novel hybrids by embryo-rescue
technique.
10. • Researches
Optimization of technology in vitro processing of grapes for
getting biotechnological lines with improved agronomic
qualities
Creation biotechnologically sort of sugar beet- on fungal disease
resistance (somatic embryogenesis gene-transferring)
In the Lab conducts research on taking artemisinin using genetic
engineering.
Potato research- biotechnologically line using micro tubes of
potato
Transgenomics and tissue culture Lab
12. Uzbekistan has a rich diversity of Viticulture.
Introducing for the breeding program rich
variety with novel technology is the only way to
achieve Zero Hunger Challange or reducing
Vitamine deficiency.
Collaboration with international colleagues
gives immense opportunity to find a solution
and better understand the of science.
