Anyone know what’s up at DFW tonight? SkyTrain down. Most escalators and moving sidewalks down. Flight displays not updating. Maybe I just need to click my 👠 3X?
Training the next generation of wheat breeders this afternoon- @JohnAntholz is setting up four of our summer interns to take turns cutting stripe rust spreader rows. Our Hege 140 is a nice place to start.
It’s that time again- Johnathan Antholz, Carson Orpin and David Butler working through Hutchinson headrows. #Wheat2024
Closing out the day in our #WheatCAP trial at Hays. Planted last week of September. Wheats resistant to wheat streak mosaic virus are outstanding in the field.
At Ehmke’s in Lane County, KS today for wheat streak selections. First year I have needed my mud boots! Susceptible breeding lines on left. Cmc4+Wsm1 line on right.
Beautiful morning in the Fusarium head blight nursery today. A gratifying contrast between the conventionally bred lines on the left and our dominant male sterile recurrent selection outcomes on the right. Flowered same day. Thanks to @KSUPlantDr team for great scab!
Harvest is coming on fast- too fast- in South-Central Kansas. Upside: more time to turnaround for planting. Downside: we still have a lot to do to be ready.
Launching Team Stripe Rust today at Rossville, KS. It’s foggy and damp - feels like the U.K. out here!
Not difficult to distinguish the wheat streak mosaic virus susceptible from the resistant today at Hays. – at Hays, KS
Not good news. April 15- near Castroville, TX. It is atypically early for stem rust to be this evident on susceptible wheat germplasm. Humidity is high and temperatures are favorable for continued development. – at San Antonio, TX

You know it’s the end of planting season when you start breaking stuff. “Tying up the loose ends” and filling out the edges proved particularly painful today.

Another nice day to plant our @KSUWheatDisease stripe rust management trials here in Rossville, KS! You can see @Wheat_MaryG and crew in the background planting breeding plots - we’re grateful for good collaborations with the USDA!
Last day of FY23- we took a moment to appreciate the sunrise before finishing planting here at Hutchinson, KS. Appreciate Nick Schuh, Kyle Wicker, and Johnathan Antholz who squeezed every last plot out of this last week. – at Kansas, USA
