Accurately Programming Complex Light Regimes with Multi-channel LEDs
Background: Advances in LED lighting technologies have allowed researchers to explore increasingly complex light regimes. This has given us greater insight into plants' responses to dynamic light, inc...

ELF3 controls trait heterogeneity by tuning the rate of maturation in Arabidopsis and barley
Trait heterogeneity in a population increases the likelihood that some individuals will survive an unpredictable environmental stress. Individual plants mature at different rates due to genetics, envi...

I am looking for ideas to help support climate-resilient agriculture researchers in the US right now. For US students, all I can say is: applications for UK MScs are still open if you want to weather this storm abroad.
