🌡️ ♨️ Due to Morocco's relentless drought, cultivated areas across Morocco are expected to shrink to 2.5 million from 3.7 million last year! 😱
Scientists at ICARDA share insights into their work, developing genotypes that not only withstand drought and heat but also yield…

Spring barley phenotyping - lab is getting fuller 😀, happy to have Amse around, a Erasmus PhD Student, who is busy with soil analysis and happy to have Sigge and Max back for this season to compare in field with lab root growth #barley #roots BarleyMicroBreed

Long day at the (windy)field - but great fun anyway :) #barley BarleyMicroBreed BOKU University

#BarleyMicroBreed had a splendid project meeting at ICARDA in Rabat 27-29 Feb.

BarleyMicroBreed Miguel Sanchez-Garcia ICARDA Anna Backhaus Andrea Visioni And a big thanks to Andrea Visioni and his students to organize the #rootphenotyping workshop in scope of our Eu Horizon sister project Root2Res it was a great experience #roots

Back at BOKU University and organising the next season of BarleyMicroBreed experiments, great to see the team motivated :) #barley #soil #roots #rootphenotyping #drought #roothairs

Arrived well and enjoyed the day with Simon and Rebecca #teamboku

Looking forward to the next days ICARDA hosted by Miguel Sanchez-Garcia and Anna Backhaus in the frame of BarleyMicroBreed and to meet colleagues from Root2Res
