1. PROJECT OVERVIEW

2. Outline  The RosBREED Project  The Need for RosBREED  Major Activities  RosBREED is Underway

3. The RosBREED Project

4. CROPS of the ROSACEAE FAMILY We’re In It Together

5. The RosBREED Project Vision

6. The RosBREED Project Mission

7. DNA information Socio-economics information The RosBREED Approach

8. 1)Enhance new cultivar adoption, enlarge market potential, increase consumption – socio-economics knowledge of trait values 2) Establish sustainable infrastructure for MAB in Rosaceae – MAB Pipeline components 3) Integrate breeding and genomics information into breeding – breeding information management system 4) Conduct MAB in demo breeding programs, fruit quality – MAB Pipeline implementation 5) Enhance sustainability of cultivar development – MAB tech transfer to breeders, engage other stakeholders Project Objectives
