The lab is pleased to welcome Mr. Enwu Liu and Dr. Shawn Clark. They join us from the lab of Dr. Jon Page here at NRC. Both Shawn and Enwu have been working for more than a year now as part of the Canadian Wheat Alliance (CWA), Enhanced Fusarium and Rust Tolerance project. They are interested in the application of viral induced gene silencing (VIGS) to the breeding of more disease resistance wheat. Now in joining the group they will continue investigating in this area through collaborations with members of the Loewen group, NRC and within the CWA more broadly.
