IV. Why this course?
Genetic purity of seeds is one of the most important basic quality characters as per
Seeds Act 1966. Loss of genetic purity leads to varietal deterioration leads to
elimination of variety from seed supply chain. After establishment of PPV and
FRA, varietal purity is assessed by using established DUS characters and guidelines.
Human resource on methods of genetic purity assessment and DUS characters is
much essential to prevent variety deterioration as well as for protection of plant
varieties.
