Plant Breeding and Biotechnology

19.9K
Crop cultivation has a long history in human civilization, with records showing the cultivation of cereal plants beginning at around 8000 BC. This early plant breeding was developed primarily to provide a steady supply of food.

Transgenic Plants

7.5K
Recombinant DNA technology called transgenesis is often used to add a foreign gene or remove a detrimental gene from an organism. Such genetically modified organisms are called transgenic organisms.
The first-ever transgenic plant was a tobacco plant developed in 1983 that showed resistance against the tobacco mosaic virus. Since then, many transgenic plants have been developed and commercialized for improving the agricultural, ornamental, and horticultural value of a crop plant. Transgenic...

Trihybrid Crosses
Some of Mendel’s crosses examined three pairs of contrasting characteristics. Such a cross is called a trihybrid cross. A trihybrid cross is a combination of three individual monohybrid crosses. For example, plant height (tall vs. short), seed shape (round vs. wrinkled), and seed color (yellow vs. green).
The F1 generation plants of a trihybrid cross are heterozygous for all three traits and produce eight gametes. Upon self-fertilization, these gametes have an equal...

Area of Science:

  • Agricultural Science
  • Plant Breeding
  • Food Security

Background:

  • Crop breeding programs require accelerated improvement and adoption of new varieties to meet diverse client needs.
  • Current breeding programs lack comprehensive quantitative insights into value chain actor trait preferences.
  • Understanding actor preferences is crucial for effective crop improvement and market adoption.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the implementation of a novel trait ranking approach using monetary incentives.
  • To identify and quantify trait preferences among diverse sweetpotato value chain actors in Uganda.
  • To uncover unmet demand and characterize trait heterogeneity in crop breeding.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted a large-scale pilot study in Uganda with a diverse sample of sweetpotato value chain actors.
  • Employed a novel trait ranking methodology based on monetary incentives.
  • Analyzed differences and heterogeneity in trait rankings among various actor groups.

Main Results:

  • Meaningful differences in trait rankings were observed among different value chain actors.
  • Significant heterogeneity in trait preferences was identified across actor groups.
  • The approach effectively uncovered unmet demand for root quality traits and characterized trait demand heterogeneity.

Conclusions:

  • Monetary incentive-based trait ranking provides a comprehensive, consistent, and quantitative approach to inform crop breeding programs.
  • This method enhances the ability of breeding programs to meet client demands and improve food security.
  • Broader implementation for sweetpotato and other crops can increase breeding program effectiveness in developing countries.
