Job description
As part of the AVENUE project funded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation, you will predict and interpret the adaptation of oat varieties to organic production. In this project, we will focus on understanding the response of genes to various environmental conditions in organic agriculture. We will analyze traits related to robust production and grain nutritional quality, especially beta-glucan content, an important bre...
