Plant genetics provides the foundation for understanding heredity, variation, and evolution in plants. This session will cover the structure and organization of plant genomes, highlighting differences across species. Attendees will learn about genetic inheritance patterns, mutations, and gene regulation. The session will emphasize tools like genome mapping, molecular markers, and quantitative trait loci analysis. Researchers will also present insights into epigenetics and how DNA methylation affects gene expression. Applications in plant breeding, such as developing high-yield and disease-resistant varieties, will be discussed. The session will also explore the use of CRISPR and other genome editing technologies in modern plant genetics. Case studies will highlight how genetic diversity supports adaptation and crop improvement. By combining classical genetics with cutting-edge molecular tools, this session offers a deep understanding of plant heredity and its applications.
