Shuyu Liu

Professor in Wheat breeding and genetics at Texas A&M University and AgriLife Research

[Shuyu Liu @HighPlainWheat]

I felt a great honor to speak in the 3rd international wheat congress talking about our wheat research. Thanks to a recent PhD graduate Kyle Parker who developed the GS prediction. It is a great opportunity to listen so many talks from worldwide well known scientists. @TAMU

[Murdoch's Centre for Crop & Food Innovation & SABC @MU_CCFI_Biotech]

Dr. Shuyu Liu from @TAMU discussing the comparisons of phenotypic vs genomic selection on yield in US winter wheat across multiple environments. Exciting insights into yield optimization at #IWC2024Perth

It was a great tour at the Donald Danforth Plant Science center today. We greatly appreciate Mathew, Malia, and Cody from the center to show us the tour. We thank the CSSA president Kim Garland-Campbell @clubwheat to arrange this. @ACSmtg

This is my first time to join the graduation ceremony during the 13 years I have been working with @tamusoilcrop @txresearch i am very excited to see so many Aggie graduates. Congratulations to Dr. Zhen Wang. I am so proud of training 30 graduates with colleagues.

A graph about temperature increase every year from a ASPB speaker on climate change @DrShepherd2013 is very similar as our crop breeders’ yield selection graph. But the temperature change graph makes the breeding selection work more challenged.

Today, the Texas Wheat Producers board of directors visited the @a_agrilife research station in Bushland. The board funds several projects carried out at this station and appreciates the work this team does for the #wheat breeding program.

@ASA_CSSA_SSSA Feel honored and very happy to serve!

[Shuyu Liu @HighPlainWheat]

Great meeting @ASA_CSSA_SSSA at Baltimore. As a past chair of C-8 Plant Genetic Resources, I organized Frank Meyer Medal award lecture by Dr. Jorge Dubcovsky and Carlvin Sperling Memorial Biodiversity lecture by Dr. Eduard Akhunov. Postdoc and students enjoyed their presenting.

[Eduard Akhunov @eakhunov]

Greatly enjoyed discussion after presenting Calvin Sperling Biodiversity Lecture! Historic wild relative introgression, prioritizing wild relatives for introgression and a new promoter of homoeologous recombination in wheat. @ASA_CSSA_SSSA @WheatCAP @KSUPlantDr @KStateRE

[Shuyu Liu @HighPlainWheat]

Dr. Susan McCouch gave a wonderful presentation about the radical collaboration and transdisciplinary science in the section of “radical collaboration in plant breeding”.

[Shuyu Liu @HighPlainWheat]

Congratulations to Dr. Eduard Akhunov @eakhunov as the recipient of the 2022 Calvin Sperling Memorial Biodiversity Lectureship. If you missed, please watch the recorded presentation. He discussed how to explore and utilize those favorable alleles in wild species adapted to env.

[Shuyu Liu @HighPlainWheat]

If you are in the CSSA annual meeting, you are invited to join the three excellent presentations: 1) Frank N. Meyer Medal Award to Dr. Jorge Dubcovsky; 2) Ron Phillips Plant Genetics Lectureship by Dr. Paul Gepts; 3) Calvin Sperling Biodiversity Lectureship by Dr. Eduard Akhunov.

[Shuyu Liu @HighPlainWheat]

Congratulations to Dr. Paul Gepts from UC-Davis as the recipient of Ron Phillips Plant Genetics Lectureship. A wonderful presentation he gave on bean demostication. Please watch the video if you missed.

[Shuyu Liu @HighPlainWheat]

Special thanks to Ekrem Ozlu from North Carolina State university @ekremozlu and Cesar Guareschi from Kansas State University @GuareschiCesar

[Shuyu Liu @HighPlainWheat]

The SASES committee appreciate the great support from those 40+ volunteer judges to evaluate the undergraduate oral and poster presentations. We selected the top 6 winners from oral and 5 winners from 50 posters. Go volunteer judges, your time and effort are greatly appreciated.

[Shuyu Liu @HighPlainWheat]

Rajeev Varshney gave an excellent presentation on chickenpea about how to use the haplotyoe data to help on selection of lines with a combinations of favorable traits and prove them in the field experiments. @rajvarshney
