A small tree or large shrub originated from central America Widely introduced into tropical and subtropical countries It adapts well in marginal and degraded soils, can survive arid

and semi arid conditions Traditional uses:

Living fence and hedge plants Reclaiming eroded land Folk medicine Soap making, lighting and cooking fire Cake as a good fertilizer

Holds great potential as a biodiesel feedstock plant

What Biotechnology can do to Jatropha.. Developing good hybrids

Accessions from all over the world, comparison of performance and selection

of best performing accessions Controlled pollinations

Marker assisted breeding using genetic markers

Tissue culture propagation of elite hybrids Addresses uniformity

Fast multiplication for large scale production

Shortens breeding cycle

Genetic modification (GM)

Pathogen tolerance, higher seed yield, lower toxicity, higher oil

content

JOil focuses on all the three aspects


Strategy I: Combining the best traits

First generationvarieties :

Variety I:

#High number of flowers butmedium level of female flowers#Soft branch

Variety II:

#Higher female flower ratio#vigorous growth with strong branc

x

Second generationhybrids:

#high number of flowers +high female flower ratio

#stronger branches


5/10


Strategy II: Introgression breeding throughinterspecies hybridization

1.1 m

One BC2F1 plant (~9 mth old)- Compact size with strong branches-Very high female flower ratio,-Flowering bunches are close-Clearly identifiable traits


Strategy III: Improving local varieties

Cross pollinationbetween our bestmaterial with localvarieties collected fromour markets

To create hybrids ofhigher productivity, alsowith local adaptation

Hybrid vigor foundbetween our best hybrid(SEA origin) and Indian,Chinese and Africancollections

A hybrid with Indian heritage

How to provide plantation materials?

Propagationmethods

Advantages Disadvantages

Seeds

-Easy to carry aroundand storage

-Cost effective

-Variable performance in field due tosegregation

-Potential inbreeding depression with pure line approach

-Long breeding cycle for hybridapproach

-loss of viability

Stem cutting -Cost effective-Easier to practice

-Slow and less efficient propagation

-Weaker rooting

Tissue culture(our choice)

-High propagation ratio-True-to-type cloning

-Strong rooting -Short breeding cycle

-Technical demanding -Higher cost

Jatropha tissue culturetechnology of JOil

A leader in commercial scale production To avoid natural segregation in seed derived plants Fast, with high propagation ratio and wide

applicability to various jatropha varieties

Produces hundreds of thousands of true to typeclones from a single elite hybrid plant within a year

Features of the phase 1 varieties Natural branching Early flowering and Good fruiting
