Research project

Climate Change in Rice

Project overview

The project uses genome-scale data for wild rice to identify genes involved in environmental adaptation, confirm the role of these genes, and determine if the distributions of adaptive alleles have changed over time.

Collaborating research institutes, centres and groups

Ecology and Evolution

The Ecology and Evolution research group covers the interactions of species with their environment.

Plants and Food Security

We study the response of plants to the environment at the molecular, whole plant and ecological levels. This includes interactions with nematodes, insects and microbes.
