The National Institute of Plant Genome Research was founded in November 30th 1997, it is an autonomous institution aided by the Department of Biotechnology, Government of India.

Objectives
• To undertake, aid, promote, guide and coordinate research of high caliber in basic and applied plant molecular biology;
• To provide and promote effective linkages on a continuing basis between various scientific and research agencies / laboratories and other organizations working in the country on plant genes, development and related areas;
• To utilize molecular biology approaches along with tissue culture and genetic engineering technology to identify important genes and manipulate these for generating transgenic plants with improved agronomic characters and pathogen / stress resistance;
• To take up any fundamental work related to gene-regulation and mapping that would aid in achieving above mandate;
• Development of molecular markers for monitoring important traits;
• Production and testing of transgenic plants;
• Identification of genes that are vital for the survival of the pathogens so that those could be targeted for pathogen combating;
• To impart advance training at different levels in the field of plant genetic engineering and genome analysis; and
• To undertake collaborative programmes with International Institutes those are engaged in plant genome research and develop close linkages.
