Producing healthy and virus-free
potato mini and microtubers, Pistachio, apple, olive, roses and cumins using tissue
culture techniques
-
Production of the first transgenic
cotton with resistance to boll worm (Helliotis virescens) and verticilium
wilt in Iran

Production of the first Iranian transgenic
rice variety (Oryza sativa) with stable resistance to stem and leaf borers
-
Identification and isolation of candidate
genes for Fusarium Head Blight resistance
-
Molecular breeding for improved
Fusarium head blight resistance in wheat in Iran

Preparation of anti-cancer drug (taxol)
extraction protocol from native plants
-
Production and evaluation of high
yielding doubled haploid wheat and barley lines with resistance to yellow rust
-
Introduction of kallar grass (Leptochloa
fusca) as an ideal crop for fodder production and bioreclamation of salt affected
soils
-
