Objective:
The objectives for this specific cooperative agreement is to facilitate research as part of a large cooperative project to develop methodology for new molecular markers in wheat that can be used for development of improved wheat germplasm.

Approach:
Utilize cytogenetic and molecular techniques to map and evaluate disease resistance genes in wheat germplasm to enhance productivity and quality. Facilitate the development of improved molecular methods for enhancing resistance and/or tolerance to disease.
