Stable high yielding cultivars for Mexico! Read our recent paper in Crop Science “Multi-location trials identify stable high yielding spring bread and durum wheat cultivars in Mexico” @inifap@CIMMYT https://t.co/WF9R24uVql
💡Interested in new crop breeding technologies?
🧬 Come and join us @ourANU to accelerate plant synbio as part of a new multi-million $$ Australian government investment in crop transformation, gene editing & synbio applications.
🌱 Exciting times ahead! https://t.co/GrYuTZj7Xy
Really excited to be part of the 2025-2026 #SuperstarsOfSTEM cohort!
Delighted to join this amazing group to further promote the important role of women & under-represented groups in STEM: https://t.co/3OzVxelqG6
Farewell Chava! It’s been awesome to have Salvador Carranza from Mexico’s national wheat program @inifap with us for a research exchange. He’s been working across a range of wheat & barley experiments in the lab & glasshouse @ourANU 🇲🇽 🇦🇺
Great to see this work out @TheorApplGenet. Analysis of wheat flowering time over 6 field seasons #phenologyisfun
Special thanks to @james_f_cockram for persistence in getting this out!
I may not have achieved much but there is now one more field station in the world with proper bathroom facilities for female staff & I’m proud of that! 🌾 🇲🇽
#WomeninCropScience
📎 New paper out now @Planta_Journal!
🌱 Great collaboration between ICAR-IARI crop physiology team led by @RenuPan276 & @niabgroup to phenotype roots & phosphorus response in diverse wheat germplasm @StephanieSwarbr @tallywright
Preparing nature & society for a hotter world: very excited to be part of this team supported by @AcadSocSci to shape an important cross-discipline dialogue next year on how we prepare our inter-dependent systems for extreme heat @ANUAgrifood
During our recent visit from @FAO we had the opportunity to showcase some of the amazing work being done by #NextGen ag researchers.
Thanks to @nikkidumbrell & James Moloney @CSIRO, John Yaxley @ACIAR & Harry Campbell-Ross @ANUFennerSchool.

🌍 Wonderful to welcome @FAO Director General Dr Qu Dongyu & Deputy Director General Beth Bechdol to @ANUAgrifood today.
🌱 A fantastic opportunity to engage on global agricultural challenges & the importance of the next-gen of ag scientists @ourANU
🌱 From surviving to thriving: check out this synthesis of the discussions, advice & resources shared at our recent Women in Leadership breakfast at the International Wheat Congress in Perth.
💚 Thanks to the wonderful @CharlotteRambla@MaricelisAceve1 for making it possible!
Things are moving fast in the OzBarley trial in Wagga.
Awesome team effort to assess the depth & breadth of diversity in this amazing resource @AustPlantPhenom@PhenologyisFun @BBergerAU
���Machine learning algorithms translate big data into predictive breeding accuracy.
🔖 Read our new paper @TrendsPlantSci on how ML can support decision making in plant breeding & how neural networks can improve genomic prediction @ANU_Research

The @scienceANU APPN team were thrilled to help host
@ScienceChiefAu Dr Catherine Foley for a tour through APPN's plant growth facility, 3D phenotyping system & Synbio facilities. Thank you @ScienceChiefAu for your enthusiasm & encouragement. HOW AWESOME IS SCIENCE! #NCRISImpact
A real privilege to be part of the Scientific Advisory Board of @LeibnizIPK (just missing Klaus Meyer hiding behind Svend!).
Excellent science applied to many facets of crop diversity & improvement with many more exciting things to come soon!
