Walk In Interview for the Position of Junior Research Fellow

National Agri-Food Biotechnology Institute (NABI) is an autonomous Institute under
Department of Biotechnology, Government of India. NABI aims to catalyse the transformation of the Agri-food sector in India by being a nodal organization for knowledge
generation and translational science leading to value-added products based on Agri-Food
biotech innovations for improved household nutritional security. Since its inception in 2010,
NABI is involved in research activities for the Biofortification, development of designer
crops for improved nutrition, providing sustainable and novel solutions towards quality food
and nutrition, and developing of evidence-based functional foods to counter malnutrition.
The food and Nutritional Biotechnology division at NABI requires

the following research personnel purely on a temporary basis.

Name of the Project – “Generating high-depth genomics information for the Himalaya rice cultivars for improving nutritional quality and stress tolerance (GAP-53)”

Name of Co-Principal Investigator – Dr. Joy K. Roy, Scientist-F

Duration – Up to March 23rd, 2025

Project Summary

This is a NABI’s flagship program, which is funded by the Department of Biotechnology (DBT), Ministry of Science & Technology, Government of India. The network project “Development of Bio-fortified and Protein-rich Wheat” will be executed in collaboration among seven network partners. The project will include i) evaluation of wheat germplasms for Fe, Zn, folate, and grain protein content, starch quality and antinutritional factors, ii) Validation and characterization of available genes/QTLs/markers for micronutrients, iii) Development of mapping populations (F2, RILs, NILs, BCs) for genetic analysis, iv) Development of high-density linkage maps and QTL maps using high throughput SNPs, v) Epistatics interactions (QTLxQTL, QTL x environment) analysis and vi) development of wheat varieties with enhanced micronutrient content and enhanced bioavailability and bio-accessibility. The manpower detail and responsibility is given below
