In Malle Roga from Research to Impact, a 7-minute video produced by the Natural Resources Institute, University of Greenwich UK, AVRDC tomato breeder Peter Hanson discusses the Center's role in breeding tomato lines resistant to Tomato leaf curl virus disease ("Malle Roga") in India.
The video highlights the Center’s long-term effort to combat the disease through collaborations with public and private sector partners in India and the United Kingdom.
The work was sponsored by the UK’s Department for International Development over the last decade, and has produced a rate of return to research at 764:1 and counting.
