GRS (Jeremy Curry) Genetic and environmental interactions for pre-harvest sprouting under field conditions in Australia
There are complex interactions between genotype, environment and the crop stage of maturity that underpin PHS incidence in the field, and these occur in a manner that is distinct from sprouting under laboratory conditions. As a result, the GxE…- Project start date:

Outsmarting fungal pathogens by preventing host recognition
Spores of fungal pathogens sense their immediate environment land to determine optimal conditions for germination. When a spore lands on the leaf surface, they detect components of crop leaf waxes and are triggered to germinate and initiate…- Project start date:
