Jatropha Multi location trial
 
Various partner institutes have identified superior germplasm of Jatropha curcas with high oil content in its kernel, high seed output per plant and disease free growth. Multi location trails were planned to select site specific material, further tree improvement for selection of individuals as well as provenances. The resulting selections shall be a resource for developing large scale planting material specific for various agro climatic regions. The objectives of the program are as below:
 
  • To collect the cuttings of high oil content selected CPTs for multi-location trial.
  • To established multi location trial of ten accessions
  • To establish clonal orchard from CPTs
  • To establish half sib progeny trial of high oil content more than (30%) for tree improvement and development of seedling seed orchard
