The Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi, invites
applications from faculty
members, and researchers of Indian universities / research
institutions for a 3-week training
programme on Understanding of mechanism of Host-Pathogen
Bio-agent Interaction and
Sustainable bio-management strategy for threatening crop
diseases sponsored by the IndianCouncil of Agricultural Research,
New Delhi, scheduled from 3 October to 23 October, 2013.
Objective
The major objective of the training programme is to train young
faculty and scientists on
biological control of major threatening crop diseases and to
understand the mechanism of
Host-Pathogen Bio-agent Interaction. The training programme will
focus on hands - on training
in research methods in the laboratory in addition to lectures by
experts on current trends so as
to enable the participants to apply the same in their research
programmes.
Eligibility
I) M.Sc/Ph.D in Plant Pathology and working in the rank of
Assistant Professor and equivalent
in Plant Pathology under Agricultural University /ICAR
Institute
ii) Working not below the rank of Assistant Professor and
equivalent in the concerned subject
under Agricultural University /I.C.A.R. Institute
How to apply
The participants application will be received online (ICAR
mandate) using CBP portal through
or under the link Capacity Building Progamme at . Afterfilling
the online applications, take a printout of the application and get
it approved by the
competent authority of the organization and upload the scanned
copy of application through
CBP portal on or before 15.08.2013. Selection of participants
will be from online applications
and the selected participants list will be uploaded/displayed on
the portal.
However, he/she may send an advance copy (via email) directly to
the Course Director. The
selected candidates will be informed individually also. The
participants are requested to keep
in contact with the Course Director regarding their selection
status.

Total No. of participants: 25 (Twenty five only)
TA/DA & Accommodation
The participants will be provided, to and fro fare restricted to
AC-II-Tier train fare or any
state road transport services as per the ICAR guidelines.
Participants should produce a
certificate that they have not been given T A/DA by their host
institute (Head of the
Department/Institute) and the training period should be
considered 'On Duty' by the
participant's parent institution. Boarding and lodging for the
participants will be provided at
the ICAR guest houses and the charges will be met by the
training programme.
About the training programme
Biological control involves the use of beneficial organisms,
their genes, and/or products, such
as metabolites, that reduce the negative effects of plant
pathogens and promote positiveresponses by the plant. Disease
suppression, as mediated by biocontrol agents, is the
consequence of the interactions between the plant, pathogens,
and the microbial community.
The success of biocontrol agents is dependent upon the complex
interactions that these
beneficial microbes establish with pathogens and plants in the
ecosystem. A better
understanding of these processes and of the cross-talk occurring
among the participants will
not only result in the application of safer and less expensive
methods to protect plants and
increase crop yield, but also will extend our knowledge of how a
disease process develops.
The success of bio-management technology is largely depending on
delivery system of bio-
agents. Efficient bio-formulations and their proper applications
are pre-requisite for the cost
effective management of plant diseases. Considering these
points, the present trainingprogramme has been proposed.
