One of our great first-year PhD students giving an invited talk selected from submitted abstracts. Students are doing great work with direct application to applied breeding programs. #NAPPN2024
One graduate student giving their first presentation and one giving their last. Excited to have both of them in the program doing great work in high-throughput phenotyping for the breeding program! #NAPPN2024
Got this picture from my cooperator so loaded up last week and went out to collect notes. There sure are a few lines in my mid-generation material that need to be dropped. A number of good lines that survived the cold as well! Looking forward to a great summer!

Have you noticed that wheat fields throughout Eastern Washington are full of #DownyBome or #ItalianRyegrass? In our latest #TimelyTopic, @WSUweeds & Dr. Ian Burke are asking for samples from your field to help us figure this out 👇🌾#GoCougs #WSU

@WashingtonGrain hosted 4 members of the Japan club wheat technical exchange team today. They toured #WSU greenhouses w/@clubwheat from @USDA_ARS, met w/our spring wheat breeder, & checked out research plots @ our Spillman Farm. So many effective partnerships in action! #GoCougs

It has been cold and windy and wet, but notes on the herbicide tolerant wheat don’t wait. Most lines looking good at 28 DAT.
