Research Interest

The primary focus of our research lab is the organization of grass genomes, particularly wheat, millets, and a biofuel crop known as switchgrass. We employ genetic and genomic analyses of the species themselves as well as comparative analyses of crop and sequenced model genomes to go about this. Research is funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), and Department of Energy.
