Professor Graham Moore and the University of Bristol’s Professor Keith Edwards have been jointly awarded the 2018 Rank Prize in Nutrition (Human and Animal Nutrition and Crop Husbandry) for their exceptional contribution to wheat research.

Jemima Brinton, a PhD student in her final year at the John Innes Centre, has been awarded the PhD Monogram Early Career Excellence Award (MECEA) at the 2017 annual MonoGram meeting in Bristol

Identifying the gene for an interesting trait that might help you breed better crops isn’t always easy – especially if you’re working with wheat or barley

A new paper explains why plant breeders have found it difficult to produce wheat varieties which combine high yield and good resistance to Septoria, a disease in wheat which can cut yield losses by up to 50%

Scientists from Dr Cristobal Uauy’s laboratory have developed a new open access online wheat training hub to support researchers currently working on wheat or hoping to make the transition to work on this important crop

Scientists at the John Innes Centre and The Sainsbury Laboratory have pioneered a new gene-detecting technology which, if deployed correctly could lead to the creation of a new elite variety of wheat with durable resistance to disease

Scientists at The John Innes Centre and The Genome Analysis Centre (TGAC) have developed a free online tool that will help a global community of scientists understand more about important food crops
