DEPARTMENT OF VEGETABLE AND ALTERNATIVE CROPS<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The main research conducted at the Department of Vegetable and Alternative Crops\u00a0<\/strong> is vegetable and alternative crop breeding, the development of new cultivars and hybrids of vegetables and alternative crops, the development of cultivation technology and seed production.<\/p>\n

The vegetable crop genetics and breeding program consists of:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • development of genotypes of vegetable crops with high nutritional value \u200b\u200band wide adaptability,\u00a0suitable for open-field or protected space production<\/li>\n
  • development of vegetable cultivars and hybrids highly tolerant to biotic and abiotic stress<\/li>\n
  • development of specific cultivation technology suitable for different production systems and uses<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The alternative crop genetics and breeding program includes<\/strong>:<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    • breeding sorghum cultivars and hybrids for herbicide resistance<\/li>\n
    • breeding high-yielding, high-quality and adaptable varieties of industrial hemp, pumpkin and squash, millet, buckwheat, phacelia, flax and tobacco<\/li>\n
    • research on medicinal, aromatic and spice plants and their products<\/li>\n
    • research related to genetics, physiology of growth and development of vegetable and alternative crops<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      The vegetable and alternative crop seed production<\/strong> includes monitoring, approbation,\u00a0processing and packaging.<\/p>\n

      The vegetable and alternative crop growing technology<\/strong> includes the development of cultivation technology, timely sowing and planting dates, as well as using adequate cultivation practices, mineral fertilization and plant protection.<\/p>\n

      Plant material quality control includes analyses of field, vegetable and alternative crops and products in the Institute laboratories.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":39895,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-39952","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nsseme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/39952","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nsseme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nsseme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nsseme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nsseme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39952"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nsseme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/39952\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nsseme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/39895"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nsseme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39952"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
