As the first tweet of my group's twitter account, something exciting: today we took delivery of a PSI Rovercam. A powerful field based fluorescence imaging device, part of @UoNFutureFood field phenotyping setup. In a few weeks time we may even have finished unpacking it.

We are overusing land and need alternative sustainable crops. Here I am screening photosynthetic efficiency in accessions of the aquatic plant, duckweed. Which grow fast, cover water globally and are high in proteins and nutrients.

A great opportunity to carry on some work I’ve been doing on rice heat tolerance. Happy to answer questions from potential applicants.

Come and work for us next year! Research Associate/Fellow sought for our innovative PalaeoRAS project, deadline 10 January 2021 👉 nottingham.ac.uk/research/beaco… UoN Jobs Nottingham Geography UoNBiosciences @PlantSciNottm

Well done CC!!

Wheat yield is stagnating/declining in many regions of the planet, one of the key physiological traits underpinning crop productivity is radiation use efficiency. In this work Carlos Robles et al developed models to predict RUE, biomass and APAR JXB @jxbotany.bsky.social …emic-oup-com.ezproxy.nottingham.ac.uk/jxb/advance-ar…
