Description & Details:
The Department of Plant Pathology at North Dakota State University is seeking a postdoctoral research associate to conduct research in biotic and abiotic stress tolerance in cereals and their wild relatives.
The project focuses on developing genomics and genetics resources in wheat and its wild relatives to study biotic and abiotic stress traits including wheat rusts.
Research will involve, but is not limited to, phenotyping segregating plant populations for various cereal diseases and abiotic traits under field and greenhouse conditions, identify genes involved in stress tolerance using genetic mapping and genome-wide association studies, functionally characterize identified genes(s), conduct transcriptomics/genomics experiments, use bioinformatics/genetics/statistics tools for data analysis, present research findings to collaborators and at national/international conferences, and prepare project reports and manuscripts for journals.
The successful candidate will have experience in: conducting biotic and abiotic stress tolerance research; phenotyping plants in the field/greenhouse for disease reaction and/or abiotic stress (drought, heat, etc.); and handling and analyzing genomics data, molecular characterization of genes, etc.
The postdoc will communicate research findings with project investigator Dr. Upinder Gill on a regular basis. In addition, the postdoc is expected to work closely with graduate students in the lab. The postdoc must also be able to communicate effectively both verbally and written. The appointment will be for one year, but may be renewed contingent on the availability of funds.Minimum Qualifications:
