This project served to develop cryopreservation protocols for several vegetatively propagated crops. The cryopreservation protocols were optimized and techniques were shared between seven…
The project is aimed at developing and characterizing pre-bred materials of eggplant containing introgressions of wild relatives for incorporating them in breeding pipelines in order to develop new…
This project with Malawi Plant Genetic Resources Centre agro-morphologically characterized and evaluated 60 cowpea and 141 finger millet accessions for tolerance to drought and tolerance to heat. The…
CIP-Kenya will place the 30 landraces from Madagascar and Zambia in vitro, phytosanitary clean the landraces, multiply shoots, acclimate the shoots out of in vitro and repatriate the phytosanitary…
This project facilitated the establishment of cryopreservation as an integral part of the long-term genebank strategy at CIP. It ensured a secure, well-documented cryobank through the creation of new…
This project aimed to provide guidance to genebanks about how to regenerate crops and obtain high-quality seeds/planting material. A CD-Rom set of simple, practical guidelines for the regeneration of…
Crop wild relatives carry valuable traits to sustain agriculture under climate change. The aim of Phase II of this project is to validate and advance climate-change resilient pre-bred potato…
