Cowpeas | Plant Breeding | Photosynthesis | Genomics | Abiotic Stress | Striga 🌱🌤🪢
It's been extreme temperatures (>42°CDay, 35°C night), and my #cowpeas had to deal with drought, heat stress, and Striga.
While searching for the superstar cowpea lines, I had an amazing time teaching #Breeding for #ClimateResilience to these future leaders & #WomeninSTEM

Wanne has co-authored a paper on the EPS2 conference last year that was held in Padova 🇮🇹🍝

Four of us were able to attend and hear great talks about all things photosynthesis. It was really great to share our data with the photosynthesis world! ☀️🍃

Glad to announce our new project-Cowpea Breeding for Future Climatic Conditions have received a seed grant from @cambridgeafrica.bsky.social ALBORADA

I’m excited about this new collaboration with @plantphys-cam.bsky.social as we combine efforts towards breeding for climate-resilience in cowpea🌱

Starting 2025 @bsky.app and I look forward to connecting with a resourceful scientific community.

My first post here is to share my recent work towards #breeding for #climate-resilience in #Cowpea for sub-Saharan Africa

Happy reading 📚 😊
