Another insightful wheat breeding and rust pathology workshop day in Kenya. ⁦Sridhar Bhavani -Wheat breeding and rusts CIMMYT⁩ ⁦Borlaug Global Rust Initiative⁩ ⁦⁦@CIMMYT⁩

For those who couldn't attend it, here you go-the online recording!

Training a new generation of wheat rust-trackers! Our team delivering hands-on training on wheat pathogen survey and samples collection at KALRO in Njoro, Kenya. ⁦Borlaug Global Rust Initiative⁩ #DEWAS ⁦CIMMYT⁩ ⁦Cornell Global Development⁩

Excited to be back in Kenya with our NARS partners from across Africa doing what I love the most, expanding and strengthening the community of Borlaug Global Rust Initiative #HungerFigthers! #DEWAS

Starting strong the 2nd week of training at Njoro, Kenya! D. Hodson discuss the current status of FHB in East Africa and the role of the Wheat Disease and Early Warning Advisory System (#DEWAS) in preventing and managing wheat disease development & epidemics. Borlaug Global Rust Initiative CIMMYT

The legacy of the #BGRI continues! The international wheat screening facility at KALRO, Njoro continues to serve the local and international wheat community allowing for hot-spot screening for rust diseases resistance and training of #HungerFigthers. Borlaug Global Rust Initiative

So proud to see 2014 WIT Early career awardee, Naeela Qureshi, sharing her expertise as wheat rust pathologist and molecular geneticist at CIMMYT, MX. Great scientist and teacher! Borlaug Global Rust Initiative CIMMYT

Another great training day! Rising star Zennah Kosgey, plant pathologist at KALRO, Njoro leading a hands-on training on Pgt (stem rust) race analysis and other greenhouse protocols.

Training the next generation of Pgt race analysts!! Borlaug Global Rust Initiative Sridhar Bhavani -Wheat breeding and rusts @CIMMYT Naeela Qureshi #DEWAS

Securing a valuable crop: One of the world’s largest crop pathogen surveillance systems, Wheat DEWAS, is set to expand its capacity to protect #wheat productivity in East Africa and South Asia. Cornell Global Development Cornell CALS CIMMYT Gates Foundation news.cornell.edu/stories/2023/1…

More on the #DEWAS-PlantVillage collaboration. Looking at ways to increase our “eyes-on-the-ground” coverage and dissemination of wheat diseases early warning advisories. Over the next few months we will looking into hoe can AI help us survey more wheat fields!

Early wheat disease detection results in better disease management and better rapid decision making. Pathogens don’t have borders. Global pathogen surveillance systems are essential to address global bio threats to our food systems.

Vigilance is needed to protect wheat against pathogens. With a mission to bolster the capabilities of National Agricultural Research Systems, a 2-week rust training course attracted 30+ researchers from diverse corners of the globe. CIMMYT KALRO bgri.cornell.edu/scientists-con…
