Crop Improvement Research at ICRISAT

  1. Figure 2. ICRISAT’s mandate crops - Climate smart and nutritious dryland crops • Access to large global collection (>120,000 accessions) of germplasm for its mandate crops. • Working with the global network of research partners. • Centre of Excellence in Genomics (CEG) and Platform for Translational Research on Transgenic Crops (PTTC) available at ICRISAT. • Access to high- throughput precision phenotyping facilities (field, Lab and controlled environment) • ICRISAT develops diverse breeding materials and supplies to researchers globally. The breeding materials developed by ICRISAT remains International Public Goods (IPGs). • ICRISAT does not release varieties/hybrids. • >1140 varieties/hybrids based on ICRISAT-bred materials have been released in 81 countries by the partners. Crop No of varieties/hybrids released No of countries Sorghum 321 46 Pearl Millet 281 26 Chickpea 171 26 Pigeonpea 119 19 Groundnut 228 39 Finger Millet 23 06 Total 1143 81 Crop Germplasm conserved Germplasm distributed No. of accessions No. of countries No. of samples supplied No. of countries Sorghum 41,816 93 513,712 110 Pearl millet 24,373 52 161,095 83 Chickpea 20,764 61 363,834 88 Pigeonpea 13,783 74 168,425 113 Groundnut 15,622 92 203,,994 96 Finger millet 7,519 25 44768 55 Small millets 4,278 39 35,213 55 Total 128,155 144 1,491,041 148 Table 1.
