• Biotechnology Institute-UTU to support Technology for Establishing Plant Tissue Culture Lab at Nigerian University

  C.G.Bhakta Institute of Biotechnology (CGBIBT), Uka Tarsadia University (UTU) supported the University of Ilorin (Unilorin), Nigeria to set-up a state-of-the-art Plant Tissue Culture Laboratory. Prof. Dr. R. Krishnamurthy, Director, CGBIBT- UTU visited the Unilorin from 2nd May to 28th May 2015 as visiting professor for developing joint venture Research Projects with M.Sc. and Ph.D. students of Plant Biology and Biochemistry Departments, and provided technological support to Unilorin to commission the Plant Tissue Culture Laboratory in its Central Research Laboratory building. Prof. Krishnamurthy who is the Principal Researcher in-charge of this laboratory will co-ordinate and supervise research students of Unilorin for conducting joint venture Tissue Culture Projects.

  This is the first Tissue Culture Laboratory of Kwara state, Nigeria with modern infrastructure facility and is expected to benefit research students and local farmers to cultivate tissue culture plants like Banana, Yam and other cash crops.

  A collaborative research project on ?Nigerian and Indian Accessions of Jowar (Sorghum bicolor) for Iron deficiency (Anti-Anaemic)? has been finalized. Ms. Abidemi, Oreoluwa Moyosore (Biochemistry) is working for her Ph.D. in this project. Prof. Adnike T. Oladiji (Dept. of Biochemistry, Unilorin) and Prof. R.
