We are pleased to announce our latest paper, out today in nature communications biology. @ErikMurchie @IanRASmillie #photosynthesis #PsbSisawesome nature.com/articles/s42003-0… Enhanced thylakoid photoprotection can increase yield and canopy radiation use efficiency in rice

She got zero points.
But we're not allowed to criticize her because it makes her cry. Perhaps if her family and friends had been honest with her, she would not have globally humiliated herself.
Enjoying, yet slightly surreal to be back at my old stomping ground at the University of Sheffield after leaving over 20 years ago for a really interesting symposium on tackling global challenges in plant and soil sciences! @plantspplplanet
This years cohort of MSc Biotechnology (plant stream) students thoroughly enjoyed our trip to @KWSUKLtd yesterday to learn all about wheat pre-breeding and hybrid wheat in an industrial setting. Thanks to @CJohn_Bejai and @nickbird28 for hosting us. @UoNBiosciences – at East Midlands, England
The year has gone fast! Looking forward to another year of talks on wheat and other cereals 🌾 this year hosted by Rothamsted research institute. #monogram24
A wonderful day with the @UoNBiosciences MSc Biotechnology plant option students visiting @Elsomsseeds. We had a fascinating time learning all about seed production and plant breeding. Many thanks to @RichTheBreeder, Mark Nightingale and all the team who showed us around. – at East Midlands, England
Super proud of @the_jake_hill presenting his poster at the pgr symposium on increasing the diversity of wheat through the wild relative Ae. umbellulata. A lot of crossing has gone into this! 🌾 @UoNBiosciences @Notts_WRC

We are excited to announce our final round of recruitment this year with spaces available on both our Standard and CASE programmes.
Open to home candidates only.
More info here: nottingham.ac.uk/bbdtp/
Deadline is 12 noon 25 July 2023.
Love the wild hedge’s growing outside our glasshouses at work. Makes the glasshouse slightly more bearable in the heat whilst crossing!! 🌾 🥵 🌸 @Notts_WRC
Really enjoying the @nature masterclasses on scientific writing and publishing here at Nottingham University. Inspiring to be at the department of Physics next to Einsteins blackboard! @UoNBiosciences #naturemasterclasses

With harvest underway in Cd. Obregon it’s also approaching in the El Batan screenhouse. New pre-breeding crosses with wild wheat introgression lines developed by @Notts_WRC @UKFutureWheat in progress capturing new sources of diversity for biotic and abiotic stress response 🌾
Really nice talk by @NikkiW_Hortic at the @nottm_bbsrc_dtp spring conference 23. The genetic uniformity of wheat (uniform like stormtroopers!) needs new genetic diversity. By breaking the gametocidal gene, can we get this from Aegilops sharonensis? @Notts_WRC @SurbhiG6

Nicola Walter @NikkiW_Hortic @Notts_WRC @UniofNottingham uses EMS mutagenesis to find the gametocidal gene in a wheat-Aegilops sharonensis introgression line #monogram23

Amanda Cavanagh @cavycavs @RIPEproject @Uni_of_Essex gives the Rank Prize ECR excellence lecture: Manipulating photosynthesis to boost crop productivity in a warming world #monogram23
Great start to #monogram23, looking forward to presenting tomorrow on heat tolerance in wheat wild relatives and @NikkiW_Hortic on gametocidal genes. @UoNBiosciences @Notts_WRC @MonogramUK – at Reading, England
First day at #monogram23. Tasty welcome from @UniofReading with delicious pastries. Excellent start!

Safe travels to all delegates as they make their way to @UniofReading @UniRdg_SAPD for #monogram23 which starts tomorrow!
