Polyploid Breeding with The Savanna Institute
Update: 2024-05-28
Description
In this episode we chat with 3 time PBTS guest Eliza Greenman and her co-worker Kathleen Rhodes at The Savannah Institute about polyploid plant breeding. Polyploidy is a genetic condition where an organism has extra copies of it's genome in it's cells. Inducing polyploidy or breeding with existing polyploids can be a useful tool to gain traits such as larger fruit, larger leaves, seed sterility along with many other possibilities.
The Savannah Institute is a non-profit focusing on researching and implementing improvements in agroforestry in the midwest.
