Prasad Hendre

I am coordinating whole genome sequencing, transcriptome sequencing and re-sequencing 101 mandate crops of African orphan crops consortium (AOCC, http://africanorphancrops.org), using various NGS technologies; Illumina SRS, PacBio, HiC, 10x, and NanoPore. I am also involved in developing modern breeding programs for ICRAF mandate trees and other annual crops, and analyzing germplasm collection in ICRAF's tree genebank using molecular markers for prioritization and resource optimization.
