Jatropha Breeding Break out: What needs to be done? Natural Variation/Analysis of plant genetic resources (need to focus on Caribbean Genotyping platform Field trialing platform Medium term (6-8 years) New cultivars Traits for: 1.Biodiesel use 2.Local use These will include: Oil yield, Oil quality Drought tolerance Pest and disease Resistance seed toxicity Plant architecture Immediate impact Selection of best clones

Jatropha Breeding Break out: How we do it Effective use of plant genetic resources -Collection (scouting) and evaluation International phytosanitary agreements/simplification Propagation - vegetative (cuttings and grafting) and sexual reproduction R&D networking - to facilitate research and exchange of material fostered by UN agencies and international research institutions (recommendation)
