MCR Postdoctoral Fellowship: Hyper-yielding lentil in mid and high rainfall environments of southern Australia
This Fellowship seeks to address a physiological question: why is lentil harvest index low in conditions that favour high biomass, and the associated agronomic question: could we develop management strategies to improve harvest index, yield and…- Project start date:
