New Plant Breeding Method Boosts Worldwide Food Supply
Dr. Robert T. Ramage of the Department of Agriculture and University of Arizona researchers unveil the balanced tertiary trisomic method, a new plant breeding technique that increased barley yields 15 to 35 percent in Arizona tests and projects a potential 10 percent rise in global food production. The method aims to reduce seed losses and ease hybridization, with further work needed to adapt hybrids to regional growing conditions and other crops such as soybeans and grasses.
