Research Project: Fusarium Head Blight Resistance for Montana Spring Wheat

Location: National Programs

Project Number: 0500-00053-004-006-G
Project Type: Grant

Start Date: May 6, 2015
End Date: May 5, 2020

Objective:
Incorporate FHB resistance into Montana spring wheat varieties.

Approach:
We will characterize advanced lines which have a resistant parent for reaction to FHB. We will focus on using shorter lines for crosses involving FHB-resistant parents.
