1. Small Tree - High Productivity Initiative Molecular achievements
11th Annual Mango Conference
May 2nd - 5th 2017

2. Objectives of Molecular Team
Improve the genetic resources for small trees
Identifying the genes involved
Monitoring gene expression on collected samples
Correlating phenology with physiological switches
Here you should briefly describe the objective of the Molecular team. Correlating phenology with physiological variations. With a special emphasis about Floral regulation, shoot branching and juvenilty
Here describe the procedure and emphasis on the fact that the genetic resources were very poor for these species. You can mention the different type of tissue we collected (stem, leaves (mature and immature), axillary buds, termial buds, flowers)
To understand the genetic and physiological regulation of:
Floral initiation
Shoot architecture
Juvenility
