Improvement in wheat carbon flux for increased yield and harvest index
This project proposed to increase grain yield in wheat by manipulating the cellular Carbon flux for the production of improved varieties with higher productivity More specifically, our objective was to modulate the activity of a key regulatory enzyme, the mitochondrial Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase…Read More
Filling gaps in wheat cultivar development with translational research
Translation of upstream genetic technology into breeding applications is essential to the continued improvement of wheat cultivars adapted to western Canadian conditions Advancing breeding methods will help improve cultivars to diseases such as Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) while maintaining grain…Read More
