2025 Texas A&M Plant Breeding Symposium
From Field to Data: Evolving Roles of Plant Breeders
Howdy! The 11th Texas A&M Plant Breeding Symposium will be held February 20th, 2025 at the Annenberg Presidential Conference Center on Texas A&M University campus. The theme for the symposium is "From Field to Data: Evolving Roles of Plant Breeders". We will highlight research on various tools developed and applied in plant breeding programs, such as genomic prediction, phenomics, crop modeling, molecular breeding, big data management and more! Join us at the 2025 Texas A&M Plant Breeding Symposium and learn about the ever-changing dynamics of plant breeding!
