Dr. Karl Kunze @kunzx37 is our Student Spotlight for this month. He obtained his PhD in Plant Breeding & genetics at @Cornell University @CornellCALS in May 2023 & is the current CSSA graduate student board representative. @ASA_CSSA_SSSA https://t.co/3Bl59sdgLX
Congratulations to our newly elected graduate student leaders, who will serve as student representatives for the 2024 term.
ASA: Taqdeer Gill, @UWMadison
CSSA: Tina Marie Sullivan, @USUAggies
SSSA: Megan Bourns, @KState
Successfully defended my PhD yesterday. Thank you to fellow graduate students, professors, work colleagues friends and family for supporting my journey(and yes I must do one final taste test for my research 🍺
Check out the @CraftMalting's latest quarterly newsletter where we talk about some of the malting barley research and variety development that we are working on at Cornell to develop locally grown, malted, distilled and brewed malting barley in New York.

Graduate students: Apply now to present your research at the Cornell Corteva Plant Breeding Symposium, April 14th 2023: "Plant Resilience: Breeding Crops for a Changing World." Selected speakers will have their travel expenses to Ithaca NY covered. https://t.co/vG2p2Ju3Je
Are you looking for a grad program in agronomy or soils in 2023? Will you be at @ASA_CSSA_SSSA next week? If so – come chat with me!
I am looking for students to build a research program in #ClimateSmartAg at @NDSU_SNRS.
Feel free to DM or email me with questions.

Karl Kunze is a PhD candidate @Cornell with @CornellCALS. His research includes two projects of breeding & genetic characterization of organic multi-use naked barley & research in development of winter malting barley for the New York State environment.

The 5th and final field season of the PhD is complete(+2 more if you count the undergrad ones). Now onto putting all of this together!(See the last pic of how I looked before grad school) https://t.co/pDf1IhlWCr
A misleading paper in @ScienceMagazine just came out talking about how a single gene can increase rice yield by 41-68%. As a (wanna-be) plant breeder, I’m here to tell you why this study is misleading, and we can’t “solve” yield through single genes 🧵

@CornellCALS
Karl Kunze @kunzx37 is a 4th year Ph.D. student in the Small Grains Program (Sorrells Lab). Karl researches the genetics of organic naked barley and winter malting barley for NY State. Focus topics include GWAS, aerial imaging, weed competition, disease resistance & malt quality.
Had a great time being a guest on the "All things Agriculture" podcast. If you're interested in what I've been up to lately with research and whatnot, check it out!

We are excited to announce the first graduate student highlight of February. Today we have the great Karl Kunze @kunzx37 from Cornell University @CornellCALS. Take a moment to read more about Karl and his research on barley breeding.
Have any clever names for a new NY variety of spring malting barley? Learn more & contribute potential names below for Dan Sweeney @san_dweeney and Karl Kunze @kunzx37
