Research Project:
THE INCURSION OF NEW WHEAT STEM RUST RACES INTO THE UNITED STATES: PREPARATION THROUGH RESEARCH, EDUCATION AND EXTENSION
Location: Cereal Disease Laboratory
Project Number: 3640-21220-020-28
Project Type:
Specific Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Sep 16, 2009
End Date: Jul 31, 2012
