Research projects with the Canadian National Wheat Cluster continue to make progress and we are happy to share some specific project updates.
In a recent publication Dr. Firdissa Bokore's Cluster research was profiled, highlighting his work developing molecular markers to speed up the breeding process for new wheat varieties. Some of the top wheat varieties producers use today have come from technological tools provided by Dr. Bokore's team, including AAC Frontier and AAC Oakman.
Save the date and register! Our next Cluster webinar focused on advancements in Canadian Eastern Soft Red Winter and Canadian Eastern Hard Red Winter wheat will explore Dr. Helen Booker and Dr. Michel McElroy's research into enhancing breeding efforts for these two wheat classes. Webinar information and registration links are below.
Stay tuned for more great webinars, reports and events related to the Wheat Cluster, and don't forget to follow us on social media.
Dr. Firdissa Bokore's research, specific to the Canadian National Wheat Cluster, was recently profiled in Sask Wheat's The WheatField newsletter. His specific research focuses on the development of molecular markers and doubled haploid production to speed up the breeding process for new wheat varieties.
