The M.Sc. in Genetics and Plant Breeding is a two-year programme. Anyone with a four-year degree can apply, not just those with degrees in Agriculture or Biotechnology. The majority of the food we eat comes from plants. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate and figure out how to mass-produce them in vast quantities, as discussed in the Plant Breeding and Genetics course. Studying how to feed a large population is an important field of study. There are several potential causes of crop failure. This allows plant breeders to develop varieties that are resistant to pests and diseases and can thrive in a variety of climates and soil types. The Master of Science in Genetics and Plant Breeding programme teaches marker-assisted selection, quantitative trait loci (QTL), connection mapping, and diversification analysis. enhance controlled trials by quantitative and qualitative genes, etc.
