Lead Researcher (PI): Harpinder Randhawa
Institution: Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada
Total WGRF Funding: $205,002
Co-Funders: Alberta Wheat Commission, Results Driven Agriculture Research, Saskatchewan Wheat Development Commission
Start Date: 2022
Project Length: 3 Years
Objectives:

Use NAM populations to precisely map new stripe rust resistance genes/QTLs to developed molecular markers in order to efficiently deploy novel genes in modern wheat cultivars.
