  • GENES Project

  • WHAT IS GENES PROJECT?

    Feeding the increasing populations in Africa requires radical transformation of a largely underdeveloped agriculture over the next four decades. A major challenge is how to increase agricultural production among resource-poor farmers without exacerbating environmental problems and simultaneously coping with climate change, a critical force driving low agricultural productivity in sub-Saharan Africa.

    Genomics offers more precise, quick, non-expensive technology that complement classic breeding approaches. However, despite the tremendous progress observed in genetics and molecular breeding worldwide, African universities have remained poorly involved in such technologies with low capacity and poor facilities. This makes it difficult to apply those powerful technologies to improve African crops. Recently, the molecular hub of Africa BecA-ILRI (in Kenya) was equipped with genotyping by sequencing (GBS) facility with a grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates foundation. This facility, termed the Integrated Genotyping Service and Support (IGSS) platform offers a new perspective for training young scholars to equip them in designing and developing molecular approaches to increase the potential of genomic breeding to help adapt crops to climate change. In anticipation of the need to increase the number of plant breeders who can use genomics, the GENES Project was established.

    WHO ARE THE PARTNERS INVOLVED IN GENES PROJECT?

    The main institutions involved in Genes Project are:
    Ebonyi State University in Nigeria, Jimma University in Ethiopia, University of Yaounde 1, and University of Abomey-Calavi in Benin.

    Other Scintific Collaborator include:
    Centre for International Cooperation in Agricultural Research for Development (CIRAD), BecA-ILRI, Montpelliar SupAgro, African Plant Breeding Academy (AfPBA), Plant Breeding E-Learning in Africa (Iowa State University) and University of KwaZulu Natal.
