In our opinion, it's not a feast if there aren't any vegetables! Here's some examples of how genetic diversity and research helps keep them on our plates 🥕🥦🥬🍅

Brilliant opportunity for a new BBSRC CASE PhD student to work on plant breeding with University of Liverpool and CN Seeds Ltd. Please apply below for further detail...and join the team. lnkd.in/d-RC2F6y

It was a lot of fun working with poet George Ttoouli for #CoventryCreates - our work on genetic diversity framed with a different viewpoint and words. Hear our interview with Rachel New BBC Coventry & Warwickshire and visit the link below to see our work 👇👇👇🥕🥕🥕

2 universities, 30 pieces of research, 30 creative responses and 2 years in the making. Including a genebank/poet collaboration! #CoventryCreates Find out more coventrycreates.co.uk

Very pleased to be talking about carrots and diversity on the 14th March - see registration link for webinar below!

It's #PlantHealthWeek 🌱 During the week, Warwick Crop Centre will be showcasing how their research helps to protect the plants we eat from pests and pathogens 🐛🥕 🪲🥦 🍄🦠 I've written a little something about my work on the Bean Seed Fly 🪰 #IPM warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/lifesc…

We'll be linking crop diversity and plant health later on this week for #PlantHealthWeek Warwick Crop Centre, meanwhile check out the different research perspectives at the link below

Day 2 of #PlantHealthWeek 🌱 today Kyle Macleod & Ricardo José Pimenta highlight their research developing resistance to turnip mosaic virus and turnip yellows virus in Brassicas 🥦 Read more about this often overlooked pathogen here: warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/lifesc… 1/2

Hear about the work of Shannon Greer - including using crop diversity in the search for methods of control of Xanthamonas, a bacterial plant pathogen. A large amount of the material screened originated from our collection! #PlantHealthDay #PlantHealthWeek

Well done Andy - a fascinating project! Many congratulations on your achievement (and it's always nice to read about how our material is used 🥦🌱)

Looking forward to being Kenilworth Show on 4th June. Our theme Life Sciences Sustainability at Warwick is 'diversity' and we'll be focusing on crop diversity UKVGB, biodiversity University of Warwick campuses and soil Warwick MSc AgriFood. There'll be some 'hands on' activities🥕🦋🌱

We're very existed to be at #GARDENSTATE @befestival tomorrow to talk about seed banks and crop diversity 🌱🥦🥕 befestival.org/events/encount…

Thank you to everyone Warwick Crop Centre Life Sciences and more widely who put our open afternoon/evening together and to all University of Warwick colleagues and students who joined us for the tour, posters and delicious canapés Miss Ellies of Coventry. Thank you Food GRP for support.

Great to see the science of sprouts! Well done all VeGIN 🥕🥦🧅🥬 Warwick Crop Centre Life Sciences

Very pleased to talk to the The RHS Fruit, Vegetable and Herb Committee and show them UKVGB facilities - we hope everyone enjoyed their visit 🌱🥕🥦🥬

We love brassica vegetables - so much so we have several thousand samples conserved! Thank you to The Crop Trust and many partners for the #cropstrategies

We're looking forward to hearing and talking about all things carrot, including our seed collections III Carrot and Other Apiaceae Symposium in York 🥕🥕🥕 #CarrotSymposium2023

It's #PlantHealthWeek - we've written a short blog for Warwick Crop Centre explaining how genebanks support healthier crops. Take a look at warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/lifesc…
