What if we could breed crops for entire farming SYSTEMS, not just individual performance?
Our new preprint explores "legacy effects" - how one crop's genetics influence the next crop in rotation.
The results surprised us! ๐งต

Our latest paper explores the potential to harness haplotypes conferring multiple disease resistance in wheat breeding
Check it out in @TheorApplGenet: rdcu.be/d1IoV
Congratulations to PhD student Jingyang Tong!

My first tri-societies meeting, and what an experience! Got lost trying to find my symposium room. Ended up doing laps around the convention centre in San Antonio (wishing Stava logged it).
What a massive meeting and powerhouse of crop, agronomy and soil researchers in the USA!

And wrapping up the final plenary session of #IWCPerth2024 is Dr Eric Dinglasan from @QAAFIl who shares an overview of the potential offered by AI-guided breeding for wheat genetic improvement.

Our new paper in @plantgenome highlights the potential of optimal haplotype stacking (OHS), a method that retains useful diversity in breeding populations
Congrats to team incl. Kira Villiers, @KaiV_F, Ben Hayes, @eric_uq & Bertus Jacobs @BreedersPlant

Itโs a wrap. The last day of the conference started with a inspiring keynote of Mark Cooper who revisited the breeders equation followed by some last excellent talks.
Thanks to everyone who joined, you made the conference really exciting!

AI could help feed the world in the face of climate change and rapidly evolving pests and pathogens say two #UQ professors.
They see four uses of artificial intelligence in crop and livestock breeding programs.

Developing varieties that help our growers to thrive well into the future is what drives us. Success is in our DNA. #LongReach #LRPB #WheatBreeding #Wheat #WheatVarieties #PlantGenetics

Can AI help feed the world?
Our new article in @NatureBiotech highlights four applications in breeding programs:
1. Deciding what to breed for
2. Phenotyping traits
3. Predicting genetic merit of individuals
4. Parent selection and optimising crossing
