In the preparation workshop, Prof. Lam first introduced on the theoretical basis, and the conventional & modern technologies of seed breeding, including crossing, radiation, GM and genome editing. Ms. Ling Wong, research associate of Prof. Lam’s Lab then demonstrated on-site the crossing techniques. Participating students showed great interest in the breeding exercise, and were all excited to kick-start their own breeding research at schools.
