Mission

Research aimed at discovering the genetic basis of yield and resistance to disease and environmental stresses in corn and small grains; development of superior genetic populations in corn and cereal grains; development of new techniques to evaluate, manage, and control disease problems in corn and cereal grains; determination of how atmospheric contaminants and climate change affect plant growth, development, and yield; and detailed investigations of quality constituents of forages and  delineation of plant-animal interfaces.
