Genomic Selection in Plants

Genomic selection (GS) is a promising tool in the field of breeding especially in the era where genomic data is becoming cheaper. But its potential has been understated due to the limited adaptation in various crops.

Ani A. Elias is a recipient of the prestigious Ramalingaswami fellowship. She is working at Department of Botany, University of Delhi. Earlier, she received her PhD from Purdue University, USA with specialization in statistical genetics and gained postdoctoral experience in genomic selection (GS) from Cornell University, USA. She has worked extensively on GS and other genomic prediction models in maize, sorghum, cassava, and safflower both in private and public sectors.

Shailendra Goel is a Professor at Department of Botany, University of Delhi from where he received his PhD. He is involved in genetics and genomics studies of complex and important traits in various crops. He has extensively worked on an important but elusive trait, apomixis. He is also known for his work on evolution of sex in seabuckthorn, a plant with nutritious and medicinal plant from cold deserts of Ladakh, India. He has developed a comprehensive program on safflower, another promising native oil seed crop. His national and international collaborations, publications in major journals, and editorial services to publishers such as Oxford, Springer & Elsevier are evidences of his research credential.
