ADVENTURES OF A CHROMOSOME SCIENTIST (CYTOGENETICIST): EXPLORING THE STAFF OF LIFE AND LIFE OF WEEDS
How do we tackle a wheat genome that is 17 Gbase and hexaploid? Our laboratory devised cytogenetic methods and stocks allowing targeted mapping of genes to specific chromosome intervals thereby bypassing the problem of genome size and complexity; these tools are also elucidating the mechanics of glyphosate resistance in weeds!
