Projects

Research directions

• Development  new forms of plants resistant to unfavourable abiotic and biotic factors of environment through with  use biotechnological methods;
• Genotyping varieties and forms of plants and their pathogens by means of molecular-genetic assay method;
• Improvement of viral, fungal and bacterial diseases of potato plants, poplar and micropropagation;
• Molecular genetic identification and certification of potatoes, wheat by means molecular-genetic markers;
• Study, selection and screening of microscopic fungi capable of utilizing petroleum hydrocarbons.

Innovative developments

• “Baiterek”, “Kazakhstan 20”, “Ak Orda” varieties of spring soft wheat;
• “Astanalyk” varieties of potatoes;
• A technology for production of virus free minitubers of potato with usage of aeroponic systems;
• F3Fusarium graminearum strain for application in biotechnology and plants breeding for resistance to fusarium root blight;
• Bipolaris sorokiniana4 strain for application in biotechnology and plants breeding for resistance to Helminthosporium root blight;
• Fusarium solanistrain for application in biotechnology and potato breeding for resistance to Fusarium.
