Please share widely!📚 We UAlberta Cereal Breeding Lab (CBL) are recruiting 1 PhD student (start-asap) to work on wheat end-use quality at the intersection of biochemistry, cereal chemistry & molecular genetics. If you’re interested, get in touch via email. Generous stipend+paid tuition. You’ll work here👇

Great rust expression in our BC nursery. BC, without question, is the best place for stripe rust screening. Our Sask Wheat NSERC / CRSNG funded BC nursery is tremendously helping us build resistance, develop resistant varieties, & train HQPs! #PublicWheatBreeding #Genetics_at_work

Couldn’t resist dropping some early morning shots showing active sporulation. These are some easy culls. Such a disease pressure helps us increase genetic gains for rust resistance in future wheat varieties!

How are researchers working to control leaf spot diseases in cereal crops? grainswest.com/2025/01/contro… Alberta Grains #leafspotcomplex

Big thanks to my good friend & a great colleague Upinder Gill for helping screen many of our breeding lines in his stem & leaf rust nursery in Prosper, ND. With this we’ve covered stem rust screening capacity in my breeding program. This nursery has already helped us kill poor lines.

RDAR staff had the opportunity to attend the inaugural Cereal Breeding Lab (CBL) Wheat Field Day. The day showcased recently released varieties like UABrynn and other advanced lines in the breeding pipeline at U of A. #AlbertaAg #Wheat #UofA

1st CBL Wheat Field Day is in books! A splendid day for UAlberta Cereal Breeding Lab (CBL) crew to showcase new varieties, genetics research & interact with growers, & seed industry. Thanks Canadian Wheat Research Coalition Alberta Grains Sask Wheat Manitoba Crop Alliance WGRF RDAR (Results Driven Agriculture Research) for funding More photos below:

Another day of rating #StirpeRust in our Creston Valley nursery in Beautiful British Columbia with excellent expression of #StripeRust #RustNeverSleep Borlaug Global Rust Initiative Sask Wheat Alberta Grains Manitoba Crop Alliance #GeneticsAtAwork #thunderstorms

Creston stripe rust nursery is another (other than Surrey nursery) integral part of my breeding program. Excellent rust expression & already killing poor lines here. #PublicWheatBreeding #Genetics_at_work These nurseries help us build stripe rust resistance in Canadian wheat.
