The Chip to achieve the goal of conservation of our own breeds with better characters and help towards doubling of farmers\u2019 income by 2022: Dr Jitendra Singh<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

DELHI : 13 AUG 2021\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n

Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) Science & Technology; Minister of State (Independent Charge) Earth Sciences; MoS PMO, Personnel, Public Grievances, Pensions, Atomic Energy and Space, Dr Jitendra Singh today released \u201cIndiGau\u2019,\u00a0<\/strong>India\u2019s first Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) based chip for the conservation of pure varieties of indigenous cattle breeds like, Gir, Kankrej, Sahiwal, Ongole etc.<\/p>\n

This indigenous chip was developed by the concerted efforts of scientists of National Institute of Animal Biotechnology (NAIB), Hyderabad, an autonomous institution under the aegis of the Department of Biotechnology. At this occasion, Dr.RenuSwarup, Secretary,DBT, Senior scientists of NIAB and senior officials of DBT were present.<\/p>\n

In his address, Dr Jitendra Singh said this is an occasion for triple Celebrations-Celebration of India\u2019s Cow and Cattle, Celebration of calibre of India\u2019s Scientists and above all Celebration of Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s vision of AtmaNirbhar Bharat. He said, Prime Minister always underline to apply scientific knowledge and innovations for \u201cEase of Living\u201d for all sections of society.<\/p>\n

Dr Jitendra Singh said that\u00a0IndiGau<\/strong>\u00a0is purely indigenous and the largest cattle chip of the world. It has\u00a011,496\u00a0markers (SNPs) more than that placed on\u00a0777<\/strong>K Illumina chip of US & UK breeds. The Minister said, this CHIP of our own indigenous cows is a great example of self-reliant India \/ \u201cATMA NIRBHAR BHARAT\u201d. He said, this chip will have practical utility in the Governments schemes to achieve the goal of conservation of our own breeds with better characters and help towards doubling of farmers\u2019 income by 2022. He took pride that even Departments like DBT and NIAB are contributing to the welfare and income augmentation of farmers. The Minister also launched two booklets on the occasion.<\/p>\n

Dr.RenuSwarup, Secretary DBT speaking in the occasion thanked the Union Minister for releasing the\u00a0IndiGau<\/strong>chip and also congratulated NAIB for this achievement. Dr.Swarup also informed that\u00a0DBT is looking forward to implement this technology in the field with the help of other agencies like NDDB, DAHDF, ICAR etc. To further the use of this chip in generating phenotypic and genotypic correlations, NIAB has entered into a collaborative agreement with National Dairy Development Board (NDDB).<\/p>\n

Since NDDB has well organized presence in the field for collection of phenotypic record, NIAB and NDDB complement each other to undertake this research for generating information for low density SNP chip for any important trait detection, like high milk yield or heat tolerance etc.\u00a0 This will eventually help in elite bull selection and improvement of productivity characters of Indian cattle.<\/p>\n

NIAB has also entered into a MoU with private industry to generate capability within India for designing and making our own SNP chips.\u00a0 These may be very low density SNP chips in the beginning and slowly this technology can be further strengthened for bigger chips, making India self-reliant in this field.<\/p>\n
