Varietal Development Accelerated in current Scenario:
Varietal development accelerated through advanced methods that made the methods more accurate, time saving, consumptive use of resources and targeted. These methods are included in the following manners:
- Applied breeding:
- Double haploid
- Mutation Breeding
- Somoclonal variation
- tissue culture
- micropropagation
- single cell culture
- Digital Image Phenotyping
Classical breeding methods that are traditional used from the beginning for varietal development. These methods include Pedigree method, bulk method, single seed decent method, back cross method and test cross methods. By applying the colchicine the number of chromosomes become doubled and increase the plant morphological traits. Double haploid is widely use in cotton and wheat.Integrated approach is applied in these days that reduce the time by taking multiple generations with the help of genetic engineering and applied breeding.
