A Career Devoted to Wheat
News: CGIAR
Thomas Payne trained as a plant breeder and became a leader in the global genebank community. In a career he compares with the diplomatic corps, his work to conserve and share the benefits of wheat have taken him around the world. As he retires this month after over 30 years of dedication at the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Centre (CIMMYT) in Mexico, Payne looks back at his fascinating career.

Newly Published Research Helps Combat Devastating Disease of Wheat Plants
News: 2Blades Foundation
This new research will help researchers and wheat breeders to introduce multiple resistance genes into a wheat variety to build durable resistance to wheat rusts. This novel approach to providing durable resistance has been pioneered by Australia’s national science agency CSIRO and the U.S.-based non-profit 2Blades Foundation, and is bolstered through a recent demonstration of a “gene stack” of five cloned Sr genes for effective stem rust resistance in wheat.
