Ph.D. 1990

Research Interests
My research focuses on the physiological aspects of seed development, maturation,
longevity, dormancy, and germination. Current research includes strategies
for minimizing the adverse effects of the production environments on seed
quality of soybeans and corn, including the development of organic seed
protectants as an alternative to chemical seed treatments, the study of
soybean genome fluidity events affecting seed quality and vigor, and the
evaluation of differential gene expression after frost damage in corn seed.
My research also includes developing strategies for producing high quality
seeds in corn cultivars with enhanced nutritional properties and other value-added
traits, and strategies to minimize outcrosses caused by adventitious pollen
flow into corn production fields.
Mentoring and Teaching Interests
I mentor undergraduate and graduate students,
and post-doctoral researchers conducting research in my lab; and teach two
courses, Agronomy/Horticulture 338, Seed Science and Technology, Agron 538:
Seed Physiology.
