Wheat Genomics for Agriculture

Crop genomics for agriculture is a fast evolving area of research. Many of the major crops now have a working knowledge of the genome sequence and RNA transcript profiles from a number of tissues, and this knowledge is now being exploited along the entire production chain from “paddock to plate”. Advances in one crop have been found to be exploitable in other crops and this workshop is intended to bring these diverse elements come together.
