Dhara Mustard Hybrid-11, otherwise known as DMH - 11, is a genetically modified hybrid variety of the mustard species Brassica juncea. It was developed by Professor Deepak Pental from the University of Delhi, with the aim of reducing India's demand for edible oil imports.

Jan 27, 2025 · The DMH-11 has been developed using the genetic male sterility (GMS) technique, especially the ‘barstar-barnase’ system, to make herbicide resistant. The new method can produce pure seed almost 99% of the time.

Jan 20, 2024 · Dhara Mustard Hybrid-11 (DMH-11) is an indigenously developed transgenic mustard. It is a genetically modified variant of Herbicide Tolerant (HT) mustard. DMH-11 is a result of a cross between Indian mustard variety ‘Varuna’ …

Nov 5, 2022 · What is DMH-11? DMH-11 is a hybrid variant of mustard developed by researchers at The Centre for Genetic Manipulation of Crop Plants, at the University of Delhi.

Feb 7, 2023 · The Government has approved the environmental release of Genetically Modified (GM) Mustard hybrid DMH-11 and its parental lines during 147th meeting of Genetic Engineering Appraisal Committee (GEAC) on 18 October, 2022 for its seed production and testing as per existing ICAR guidelines, conditions imposed by the GEAC while recommending the envir...

Oct 28, 2022 · India’s regulatory body for genetically modified organisms has approved DMH (Dhara Mustard Hybrid)-11, paving the way for its commercial release. This herbicide-tolerant mustard variety has been developed by crossing an Indian mustard variety ‘Varuna’ with an East European ‘Early Heera-2’ mutant.

The barnase-barstar GM technology was deployed to develop DMH-11. The researchers a popular Indian mustard variety ‘Varuna’ (the barnase line) with an East European ‘Early Heera-2’ mutant (barstar). It contains 3 important genes Bargene, Barnase and Barstar, all …

Sep 19, 2023 · Dhara Mustard Hybrid (DMH 11) Is a genetically modified variant of herbicide tolerant mustard. It contains two alien genes from a soil bacterium called Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. It is a high yielding commercial variety of mustard.

Dec 26, 2022 · DMH-11 is a result of a cross between Indian mustard variety ‘Varuna’ and East European ‘Early Heera-2’ mustard. It contains two alien genes (‘barnase’ and ‘barstar’) isolated from a soil bacterium called Bacillus amyloliquefaciens that enable breeding of high-yielding commercial mustard hybrids.

Oct 28, 2022 · DMH-11 or Dhara Mustard Hybrid-11 is a transgenic hybrid mustard variety developed by the Centre for Genetic Manipulation of Crop Plants, under Delhi University. The variety was first cleared by the GEAC in May 2017, but …
