In this position you will develop wheat populations with deep root systems that confer an increase in water productivity in farming systems that experience drought, and will provide the phenotypic and genotypic selection tools to Breeders in India and Australia. The wheat lines that are sources of the deep roots were identified in Phase 1 of this project, through a collaboration across field sites in India and Australia. This role is an excellent opportunity for a post doctoral fellow to participate in an international collaboration in the important area of water productivity, and to apply pre-breeding activities to deliver root architecture traits into new varieties for farmers.
