📢 New #Root2ResPodcast!

In this episode, Eithne Browne and Denis Griffin from Teagasc explain how traditional #PotatoBreeding works in practice and how modern tools such as molecular markers are helping breeders develop new varieties more efficiently

🌿 Can plant roots adapt when the environment changes?

While a #RootIdeotype describes the ideal root system for a specific environment, #RootPlasticity is a plant's capacity to adjust its root traits in response to changing conditions 🌱

🌱 What if crops could make better use of the phosphorus already in the soil?

Root2Res has developed #RootIdeotypes for improved phosphorus uptake in cereals, faba bean and potato.
