Summary
The varietal purity of seeds that are multiplied into foundation, registered, and certified seeds largely depend on the quality of nucleus/breeder’s seeds. It is therefore, of utmost importance that the nucleus/breeder’s seed is produced in such a manner that satisfactory genetic purity, identity and other good qualities of seed are maintained. For this reason, crop research directorate was engaged in nucleus/breeder seed production for varietal purification and seed maintenance.
