  • Cracking the Code of Hybrid Vigor and Crop Adaptation
    In this episode, John McKay, Chief Scientific Officer at New West Genetics and professor at Colorado State University, discusses his research on local adaptation, genotype-by-environment interactions, and heterosis. His work spans crops like maize, rice, and hemp, applying evolutionary genetics to improve breeding strategies. John's projects aim to enhance crop efficiency and sustainability.More information:New West Genetics hybrid hempGenetic basis of plant root growth traits and their response to environment (current NSF grant)National Science FoundationConditional neutrality in Arabidopsis local adaptationGxE in maize root traits

  • Genetic Engineering, Metabolism, and the Future of Sustainable Agriculture
    Our guest in this episode of the Computomics Podcast is Alain Tissier, Managing Director at the Leibniz Institute of Plant Biochemistry. He discusses his research focusing on the molecular mechanisms in plants, particularly the interaction between primary and secondary metabolism and how plants produce chemical compounds for defense and communication. Alain talks about on his work in metabolic engineering and genome editing, particularly using a novel CRISPR-based technology to introduce specific genetic changes in plants. Hear about the INNO-TOM project which uses pangenomes to breed disease-resistant and nutrient-enriched tomatoes.

  • Microbiome Matters - Approaching a Better Health Through Science
    In this episode, Gabriele Berg, a renowned microbiome researcher, discusses her work on microbial communities and their impact on health and planetary ecosystems. She emphasizes the interconnectedness of microbiomes in plants, soil, and humans, and aims to enhance ecological and human health. The project An Apple a Day revealed the microbiome's role in apple health, highlighting microbial diversity within the fruit. Gabriele also talks about Tiny Biome Tales, an educational microbiome-focused game integrating science and public outreach. She advocates soil health restoration, stressing its importance for sustainable food systems. Also, collaboration, innovation, and science communication being key to impactful research.

  • Ag Research on a Below-Ground Mission: Reducing Wheat’s Nitrogen Footprint
    This episode is all about reducing the Nitrogen footprint of wheat. Wheat is the world’s largest ‘crop’ consumer of nitrogen-based fertilizer, while providing affordable calories to billions of resource-poor people and ca. 20% of globally consumed protein. Victor Kommerell is the CropSustaiN Mission Director of the BNI (Biological Nitrification Inhibition) wheat initiative launched by the Novo Nordisk Foundation and CIMMYT. The initiative aims to develop new wheat varieties capable of reducing agriculture’s nitrogen footprint. In this enjobyable episode, hear from Victor not only about this ambitious new research initiative, but also about his very unsusual career path and his take on sabbaticals.

  • How European Hobby Gardeners Are Helping Research
    This episode delves into the world of plant phenotyping. Kerstin Neumann shares her insights from managing a very diverse phenotyping infrastructure. Here, field-like growth is enabled under strictly controlled conditions, including setups to measure abiotic stresses. She explains how this enables the non-invasive tracking of plant growth and the involved genomic regions. The conversation also sheds light on INCREASE, a large European project including a Citizen Science Experiment led by Kerstin, now in its 5th year. INCREASE generates phenotypic data for an extensive collection of common bean varieties - with the help of citizens all over Europe who contribute to data collection in an unprecedented number of different locations.
