January 5-9, 2015

The goal of the Tucson Plant Breeding Institute (TPBI) is to offer state-of-the-art instruction and training in modern plant breeding tools such as statistics, molecular breeding, and computation.

While plant breeding is among humankind's oldest and most important endeavors, it remains a highly dynamic field. There is a constant flux of new technologies for plant improvement, such as advances in genomics, bioinformatics, high throughput phenotyping, and new statistical approaches for selection, gene mapping, and GxE interactions. TPBI offers breeders state-of-the art training in these modern tools. By offering a series of modules on different topics, the Institute allows a breeder to choose courses that best fit their specific needs. The mission of the institute is to transfer current technologies to a wide audience of users, be they commercial breeders or academics interested in plant science improvement.

Module 1: Introduction to Plant Quantitative Genetics: January 5th- 7th, 2014

Module 2: Advanced Statistical Plant Breeding: January 7th-9th, 2014

Location: Keating Bldg. Rm. 103
