PhD Position: evolutionary quantitative genetics
A PhD fellowship is available to work with Dr. John McKay at Colorado
State University. We are looking for a highly motivated individual
with a solid training in Evolution, Plant Physiology and Genomics and
with the demonstrated ability to carry out outstanding research. The
applied goal of the project is to improve the drought stress tolerance of
winter wheat by incorporating germplasm primarily from the wild relative
Aegilops tauschii. The fundamental goal of the project is to identify
and physiologically characterize genes and genomic regions underlying
variation in yield and its sensitivity to drought by combining plant
breeding with genome-wide molecular techniques and whole-plant physiology.
The position is available January 2009, but the start is flexible. The
successful applicant will participate in a short-course in breeding
for drought adaptation, which will take place in June 2010. Salary and
benefits are competitive, and CSU is an excellent academic environment for
the study of plant biology. Our lab group has excellent interactions with
colleagues in bioinformatics, plant physiology, ecology, evolutionary
genetics and molecular biology. Fort Collins is located on the Front
Range of the Rockies and is ranked highly among great places to live. This
position is restricted to US citizens and permanent residents
If you are interested in this position, please send a letter of interest
and a C.V. in pdf format via e-mail to jkmckay@colostate.edu
