Progress And Future Prospects Of Developing Transgenics In Mango, Rajesh Pati Oct 2013

Progress And Future Prospects Of Developing Transgenics In Mango, Rajesh Pati

Rajesh Pati

Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is the most important fruit crop of the world. India ranks first among world’s mango producing countries accounting for 57.18 % of the total world mango production of 19.22 million tones. With the development of rDNA technology, plant breeders have access to a large number of genes that can be integrated into the plant genome.


Somatic Embryogenesis In Mono And Poly Embryonic Cultivars, Rajesh Pati Oct 2013

Somatic Embryogenesis In Mono And Poly Embryonic Cultivars, Rajesh Pati

Rajesh Pati

A standard uniform protocol of regeneration is the prime and foremost prerequisite for not only improve the productivity, the production from the existing area but also development of transgenics in mango for various traits. Polyembryonic cultivars are good rootstock because of moderate canopy, tolerant to draught, salt, environmental stress (wind, high temperature, air pollution), fungal disease (anthracnose, powdery mildew, gummosis) and hoppers.
