Research Project: High-throughput Phenotyping and Genotypic Modeling of Intermediate Wheatgrass Forage and Seed Traits

Location: Forage and Range Research

Project Number: 2080-21500-002-008-S
Project Type: Non-Assistance Cooperative Agreement

Start Date: Aug 15, 2021
End Date: Aug 14, 2025

Objective:
Determine approaches for high-throughput phenotyping and genomic prediction of forage and seed production traits of intermediate wheatgrass.

Approach:
The cooperator will supervise and direct graduate students that utilize remote sensing, phenotypic measurements, and genome sequencing data to develop methods and models for high-throughput phenotyping and genomic selection to improve seed production traits of intermediate wheatgrass.
