Dr. Crosby, and his team of scientists from across the country, are studying the way crops tolerate cold, salinity and other nonbiological stresses. They work with wheat and canola, examining the whole plant and studying these crops at the molecular level. Determining what proteins and genes are involved in regulating a plant\u2019s response to low temperatures could provide critical information for farmers. The team collects expressed sequence tags (gene markers) from cold-responding wheat. The researchers study canola\u2019s response to metal and nutrient stresses. This work has the potential to improve agricultural productivity in Canada and around the world.<\/p>\n
