Message

I am extremely happy to know that Indian Society of Genetics, Biotechnology Research and

Development is organizing its National Conference on “Biotechnology: Resource Management for

Sustainable Nature in 21st Century” during April 22-23, 2016 at J.P.N. Sabhagaar, Dr. B. R.

Ambedkar University, Agra.

Genomics-assisted breeding offers unique opportunities for improving efficient use of land, water,

biodiversity, and other resources and inputs, as also for enhancing resilience to accentuating biotic

and abiotic stresses towards meeting the Sustainable Development Goals. In recent years, CRISPR

(Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palinodromic Repeats) – a powerful genome editing tool for

introducing a modification into an endogenous gene, has vastly expanded the scope of „omics‟ in

genetic engineering with least biosafety concerns. But, this approach has yet to receive the due

attention of Indian scientists and other stakeholders.

In the light of the above developments in the area of Biotechnology, especially in context of

sustainable natural resource management, it is hoped that this conference would serve as a platform

for intellectual matching and sharing of expertise and success stories and mutual interaction in

different areas of the frontline sciences, including the CRISPR research.

I extend my best wishes and greetings to the conference organizers for organizing such an event for

the welfare of the people.

MESSAGE

It is a pleasure to know that the Indian Society of Genetics, Biotechnology Research & Development,

Agra is organizing the National Conference on “Biotechnology: Resource Management for Sustainable

Nature in 21st

Century (BRMSNC-2017)” during 22-23 April, 2017 at J.P. Sabhagaar, Agra, Uttar Pradesh.

Agriculture constitutes the lifeline of India, which is directly associated with 67.63% livelihood of our population.

Indian Agriculture has made impressive progress over the years and phenomenal growth has been observed

in oilseed production. India is a major producer and consumer of oilseeds and to meet the domestic demand

country imports edible oil worth more than 70,000 crores annually accounting for more than 50% of the total

value of Agricultural imports. Among the various edible oils mustard oil occupies a prime position as a cooking

medium. The importance of the Indian mustard among Brassica can be gauged from the fact that rapeseed

mustard contributes nearly 24% of our total oil seed production and 90% area under Brassica crops. Rapeseed

mustard is expected to play a major role in bridging the widening gap of demand and production of edible oils.

However, attempts to enhance productive potential of the crop significantly are not fully successful due to their

cultivation under diverse and constrained ecologies. It is necessary that key issues related to „Biotechnology

and Resource Management in all its facets; including technology development and policy initiatives for

sustainable farming in tune with global climate change are deliberated among all the stakeholders.

I am sure that this Conference will provide opportunities to discuss emerging issues related to assured oilseed

supply for oil security of the country.

I wish the Conference a great success.

With kind regards

(P. K. Rai)

National Conference of INDIAN SOCIETY OF GENETIC, BIOTECHNOLOGY RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT,

AGRA April 22 & 23, 2017

Theme: Biotechnology: Resource Management for Sustainable Management in 21st Century

From the Desk of the Joint Organizing Secretary

Respected Colleagues, guests and friends,

On behalf of organizing committee, it is my great privilege

to extend my heartily welcome to all delegates attending the National Conference on

“Biotechnology: Resource Management for Sustainable Management in 21st

Century”.

The society is unique, local knowledge existing within and developed around the specific

condition of biotechnology field which is related to women and men indigenous to a global

geographical area. ISGBRD contracts with the international knowledge system generated by

universities, research institutions and private firms. It is the basis for local-level decision in

agriculture, health care, food preparation, education, natural resource management, and a

host of their activities in rural communities. ISGBRD is the information base society, which

facilitates communication and decision making in the field of biotechnology research. The

ISGBRD; a nonprofit organization of academicians and enlightened people of Agra,

dedicated to organize this academic festival. Our Academy‟s vision, under the dynamic

guidance of its Chief Patron and also the our senior, philosopher and guide,

Dr.P.K.Upadhayay, Head, Department of Genetic & Plant Breeding, R.B.S. College, Agra

has been to promote the understanding, appreciation and promoting of science and nature.

It has been trying to play a vital role in human advancement and improving living conditions

by way of informing, educating and encouraging interacting among information

professionals, scientists, nature lovers, activists, managers and

users. It has taken into consideration very seriously that the sustainable nature growth with

the help of biotechnology. A vibrant industrial and agricultural region, Uttar Pradesh has

struggled with one of the highest infant and child mortality rates in India and polio is still

endemic here; however it has been best recognized for timeless landmarks such as the Taj

Mahal. The ISGBRD envisages its supporting role for the creation of an enabling protective

and sustainable nature for health care through raising awareness of the various

stakeholders and communities about the adverse impact of unsustainable condition in

biosphere among the most vulnerable and marginalized population groups and to change

attitudes, behaviors and practices.

The present conference aims to work very closely with the Government of Uttar Pradesh to

bring in the positive change, including proposing strategies of mitigation to tackle the

challenges of changes in climate and propose an action plan to assist state‟s vast health

care network. The conference also aims to keep up with the pace of rapid development in

Page 25: Contents 1. Organizing Committee 2. Office Bearers of …irjgbt.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/S-1.pdf · Dr. Garima Sharma Mr. Anshuman Upadhyay ... Prof. P. K. Gupta (Ret.),

the field of unsustainable nature and its hazardous effects in the specific context of the

Indian‟s most populous state; the Uttar Pradesh, which has taken a conscious lead to

become the Uttam Pradesh in coming times, under the dynamic leadership of its young

Chief Minister, who has a wealth of knowledge and a commitment to act with speed with a

socialistic approach. I personally feel that this conference will act as a vital tool of

communicating invaluable information and person to person interaction for the development

of knowledge in regard to the focal theme of conference. I believe that the conference would

meet the expectations of the delegates and all of us will have wonderful and memorable

time in the days to follow and delegates would carry the sweet memories of academics feast

in the background of rich cultural heritage of Agra together with its tantalizing gastronomic

delicacies.

The local organizing committee has been very active and arrangement have been put in

place to ensure that this National Conference of the ISGBRD becomes a resounding

success, with several innovative activities within and around the programme. I believe that

even the most meticulously organized scientific programmes and collaborative activities will

come to nought with active participation and support of the delegates; therefore, it is our

humble and sincere request to all to come forward with your active contributions and benefit

the policymakers from the treasure of your vast experience.

I convey my heart greetings to all on this occasion.

Dr. Atul Tiwari Joint Organizing Secretary
