What will I learn?
This course equips you with hands-on skills to set up small breeding experiments, select appropriate crops and germplasm, and develop crossing plans for crops that withstand heat and drought. You'll master Mendelian ratios, inheritance patterns, heritability estimates, ANOVA analysis, and selection indices, while linking molecular markers with field observations to deliver actionable advice for improving crop varieties in practical settings.
