Honour to celebrate 100 years of rice growing in Australia 🇦🇺🌾 at the #AustralianRiceConference! Grateful to present my research on cold & heat tolerance with the UQ #RiceDen Team, contributing to pre-breeding for cold tolerance & lodging resistance @JaquieMitch_UQ
Recently released long grain, short duration, aromatic rice variety Champey Sar 70 selected for weed competitiveness is harvest ready. MLTs of promising weed competitive genotypes underway in Southern Cambodia.

Our work showing narrow root angle promotes deeper rooting, cooler canopies, and higher grain yield of rice grown in aerobic systems is published in Field Crops Research! I thank @JaquieMitch_UQ@cprou1@UQRiceDen@AgriFuturesAU for the support! @UQ_News

Field demonstrations and FGDs in action!
A package of tech (Laser leveling + drill seeders + certified seeds) for weed management in direct-seeded rice in Cambodia.

Our cold paper is out! Here, we identified genomic regions and characterised floral traits associated with low temperature tolerance in rice. I am grateful to my supervisors @JaquieMitch_UQ , Prof. Shu Fukai, and @cprou1. https://t.co/Iy9TFA9qQj
Australian #rice breeders will soon be able to use a plant’s DNA to select traits to develop varieties best suited for aerobic rice production.
This will help the industry reduce its use, & is also set to help improve yields and cold tolerance ➡️ https://t.co/y9y8pmB8Dv

Water is fast becoming a limiting resource in ag. Research by @argiev & @JaquieMitch_UQ aims to show the advantages of improved root systems focusing on aerobic rice. It's early days but AP systems are a promising alternative. Learn more ➡️ https://t.co/1lJqwmlnhu.
