Abstract
Fe and Zn analysis of new genetic materials will be carried out (apprx. 200 accessions)
New crosses will be commissioned between High and High content parents for both Fe and Zn. Primary, intermediate products will be progressed through generation advancement and final products will enter into observation nurseries and yield trials.
Yield trials of newly-developed materials: Promising lines developed by NARS partners will enter into Preliminary and multilocation Trial. Elite lines developed at ICARDA will enter into International nursery (LIENMN-20).
Inheritance of Fe and Zn synthesis to be understood through molecular approach, and the information will be used by breeders to enhance breeding efficiency. Recombinant Inbred Lines (RILs) are in the process of development for inheritance and marker study.
MS/PhD scholars will continue higher studies along with thesis research.
A review and planning meeting will be organized with NARS partners.
