USDA-ARS Postdoctoral Fellowship on Genetic Improvement of Sugar Beet Resistance to Disease and Abiotic Stresses U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) in United States

Plant Pathology and Plant-Microbe Biology Section, School of Integrative Plant Science, Cornell University This postdoctoral position is based in the Khan Lab at Cornell University’s College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. The project focuses on the genetics and genomics of disease resistance in apples, with particular emphasis on fire blight and apple scab. The lab explores genetic diversity in cultivated and wild apple species to uncover novel sources of resistance and to build the knowledge...

This postdoctoral position is based in the Department of Plant Pathology at Washington State University’s Irrigated Agriculture Research and Extension Center in Prosser, Washington. The researcher will focus on the Ascochyta blight complex on winter pea , with an emphasis on identifying the pathogens involved and understanding how they can be managed through genetic resistance . The project combines field and greenhouse research with molecular and quantitative approaches. The successful candidat...

[4-year PhD CASE studentship with tuition fees paid directly to the University, a stipend of £21,805 for 2026/27, and a Research Training Support Grant of £5,000 per year.] This is a 4-year Norwich Research Park Biosciences Doctoral Training Partnership PhD CASE studentship hosted at the University of East Anglia and based at the Earlham Institute, in collaboration with Tozer Seeds. The project asks how celery can be future-proofed against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. apii race 4, a highly virulent...

University of Minnesota is hiring a Post-Doctoral Associate at the Northwest Research & Outreach Center in Crookston, Minnesota, United States. This postdoctoral project focuses on seed physiology , preharvest sprouting (PHS) , wheat , and crop quality in Hard Red Spring Wheat. The research aims to improve how PHS is measured, understand how ripe wheat seed absorbs water under controlled temperature and relative humidity conditions, measure GA and alpha-amylases over time, and develop and valida...
