A new project funded by United States Department of Agriculture/ National Institute of Food and Agriculture PIs: Jonathan Lynch, Hannah Schneider, Francisco Dini-Andreote
An Integrated Phenotyping Platform for Deeper Roots.
Investigating the impact of root anatomical traits on drought tolerance, phosphorus deficiency, and nitrogen deficiency in the greenhouse and field.
A novel trait to increase drought tolerance by reducing the metabolic cost of soil exploration
The Roots Lab has pioneered the study of root system architecture as a conglomerate of root phenes in both maize and common bean.
This project develops novel modeling tools and deploys them to understand how we can develop more efficient, resilient crops urgently needed in global agriculture.
This project is developing new traits and phenotyping platforms to improve the drought tolerance of maize.
