strategies.
National
strategies have been implemented to accelerate research and its application in areas including biological control, crop rotations and polycultures.This has resulted in major changes in some of the goals of Cuban
plant breeding and a search for more appropriate methods of participatory
plant breeding.
To help improve crop
breeding strategies and overcome challenges such as making
plants more tolerant of marginal lands, and stresses such as drought and low nutrient availability, researchers are focusing on understanding and promoting beneficial
plant - microbe relationships.
There is also a long list of notable experts who will speak on a variety topics, including aquarium and water garden
plants; fish
breeding; changes in the aquatic world; specialty stores in niche markets; hiring and training
strategies; designing a successful fish room; and aquatic explorations of Thailand and Lake Tanganyika.
A diverse mix of potential adaptation
strategies, such as crop
breeding, changing crop varieties, adjusting
planting time, water management, diversification of crops and a host of indigenous practices will all be applicable within local contexts.
Their research could be used to help identify adaptation
strategies, potentially including genetic modification or improved
plant breeding.
