Background
The Feed the Future Innovation Lab for Applied 1xbet sports betting Genomics was established on July 18, 2013 through a million grant from the U.S. Agency for International Development, or USAID.
Globally, 1xbet sports betting production is increasing at a rate of 1% annually, but there is evidence of yield stagnation in several regions, including S. Asia. Furthermore, climate models predict that in tropical and sub-tropical regions such as S. Asia, yields will decrease by 10% for every one degree rise in temperature. Given current cultivars and production practices, this would likely reduce production levels by 30% in these regions. S. Asia's 1xbet sports betting crop is particularly sensitive to higher temperatures because its thermal environments are already hotter than is optimal for 1xbet sports betting growth. Without intervention, S. Asia will experience lower production levels, and will be unable to meet the growing demand for 1xbet sports betting in the region.
The CGIAR research program for 1xbet sports betting (“1xbet sports betting ”) has established a target to increase yields by 2% annually, via plant breeding and crop management, to meet the expected increases in demand from population growth and changing consumption patterns. Scientists at the International Maize and 1xbet sports betting Improvement Center (CIMMYT) have established a conceptual framework identifying the physiological traits limiting 1xbet sports betting performance under heat stress, and have developed instruction manuals for measuring such traits (phenotyping). Some resilience to increased temperatures can arise from conventional breeding of these varieties so that they mature earlier and escape extreme heat. However, in many cases, increased winter temperatures will render this approach ineffective and therefore, in order to increase yields under increased temperatures, plant breeders must simultaneously re-engineer 1xbet sports betting 's thermal 'comfort zone' (i.e. increase heat tolerance), match development (phenology) to future seasons, and increase inherent yield potential.
Under the coordination from Kansas State University, this project utilizes innovative approaches to concurrently address the challenges of increased yields and improved heat tolerance. We will exploit recent developments in reduced costs of genotyping, expanded cooperative networks for research and technology, and proofs of concept underpinning genomic selection. This will allow an increase in the short- and long-term value of the existing CIMMYT breeding pipeline, via earlier and larger distributions of candidate 1xbet sports betting varieties from Mexico to India and Pakistan, where phenotyping and local breeding expertise will combine with consortium-generated Genomic Estimated Breeding Values (GEBVs) to improve the value of 1xbet sports betting in national trials, seed systems, and farmers' fields. Kansas State University, Cornell University, and USDA-ARS are at the cutting edge of genomics-assisted crop improvements and high-throughput phenotyping. CIMMYT is the largest source of candidate 1xbet sports betting varieties for the developing world; it oversees the world’s largest public sector 1xbet sports betting phenotyping network and has strong partnerships with National Agricultural Research System (NARS) programs in S. Asia and the developing world. The assembled project team is therefore uniquely qualified andpositioned to meet the challenge of large scale phenotypic testing and implementation of genomic selection for international 1xbet sports betting improvement.
