An announcement from Bioversity International:
"In response to increasing demand for capacity building on pre-breeding, the Global Partnership Initiative on Plant Breeding Capacity Building (GIPB) has just launched an e-learning course on Pre-breeding for effective use of plant genetic resources for plant breeders and germplasm curators and others engaged in germplasm management and/or crop improvement. It can also be used for teaching and learning about pre-breeding both in formal education and on-the-job training.
We believe that this practical, self-paced instructional tool would be of interest to your web site users, partners and collaborators. For more information about the course, click here for the brochure. You can access the e-course or request a copy of the course on CD from the GIPB web site here."
