What a great way to celebrate a successful year of crop science across the Godwin, Hickey, Crisp, Massel and Smith labs at UQ! We also discovered that Samir Alahmad is a lawn bowls super star…
So proud of our amazing graduates! I think we set a new record with 5 PhD graduates and 1 Masters associated with the Hickey Lab! Congrats to Yasmine Lam, Dipika Roy, Asad Amin, Seema Yadav, Amy Mackenzie and Maggie Zhang
PhD student Stephanie Brunner presenting her barley stay-green research at the German Plant Breeding Conference last week TheorApplGenet paper coming soon!
New TheorApplGenet paper reveals positive genetic correlations between stay-green and barley yield across multiple environments; highlighting the potential as a future breeding target Huge thanks to our collaborators InterGrain & congrats to Stephanie Brunner on her first paper!

A genome-wide atlas of rust resistance loci in wheat! A summary of QTL/genes for the three rusts from 170 publications over two decades. We positioned 920 loci across 21 chromosomes based on the latest reference genome Check it out in TheorApplGenet: link.springer.com/article/10.100…
In 2018, we published multi-crop speed breeding protocols in Nature Plants and today the article has attracted 1,000 citations! Congrats to all involved across UQ, John Innes Centre, our collaborators and particularly Brande Wulff, Sreya Ghosh and Amy Watson rdcu.be/dNv4T
