Information
OREGIN has an ongoing programme aimed at collating information relevant to R&D underpinning genetic improvement of oilseed rape (Brassica napus)
Stakeholder forum
The stakeholder forum, chaired by Prof. Ian Bancroft, comprises breeders, sponsors, scientists and "end-users", who represent the substantial majority of UK's expertise relating to oilseed rape genetics and breeding.
The forum aims to promote the activities of OREGIN and elevate its profile.
