Traditional breeding attempts to create a high-iron wheat variety have failed, so @JohnInnesCentre researchers are exploring using genetic engineering to boost iron levels in wheat. youtu.be/hs9vU8EAAi4

In celebration of all our graduate degree recipients last week, we thought we'd celebrate @UMNPlantPath grad student and 2019 CFANS Graduate Commencement speaker Feng Li. It's great to see how our students grow and make an impact as a result of coursework and mentorship #UMNProud pic.twitter.com/sRi5ghvlg5

Farmers and scientists have been fighting stem rust since the domestication of wheat thousands of years ago. This brilliant dance between humans and nature will likely never stop, but by working together we can stay one step ahead of this pesky pathogen. youtu.be/qFO9-w0uu1Y

Researchers found a decline in the climate resilience of European #wheat in most countries during the last 5 to 15 years. They also found serious Europe-wide gaps in wheat resilience, especially regarding yield performance under abundant rain.

Wheat stem rust is a fungal pathogen that causes significant yield losses worldwide. As a a center of genetic diversity for stem rust, East #Africa is an ideal environment to test resistance: BGRI partners test over 50,000 wheat lines a year in Kenya. youtu.be/qFO9-w0uu1Y
