Future strategies 

• Whole genome sequencing of blackgram to identify novel genes/alleles and pathways contributing to disease resistance against MYMV
  1. Whole genome sequencing of blackgram using next‐generation sequencing technologies, and characterization of genes and repeat content.
  2. Identification of novel genes, pathways (stress and defence) and genetic markers associated with resistance to yellow mosaic disease in blackgram
  3. Development of genome based web resources on genes, markers and plant defence pathways associated with yellow mosaic disease in blackgram
• Whole genome re-sequencing of native rice variety released by TNAU
  1. Whole genome re-sequencing of native rice genotypes through Next Generation Sequencing
  2. Mining novel alleles (SNP) of genes for grain quality trait
• Database development on morphological and medicinal properties of banana.
• Database development of anti-inflammatory properties from plants and other sources.
• Generation of Plant lncRNA genomic resources.
• To organize training program on recent advancement in bioinformatics
