Agri-Innovation Program: Oilseeds East

The following research projects are currently underway:

  1. Project management
  2. Gene-targeted mutagenesis of soybean cytokinin oxidases to promote yield and agronomic/food performance
  3. Rapid marker-assisted back crossing and speed breeding
  4. Incorporation of drought tolerance in soybeans
  5. Natto and specialty trait soymilk/tofu improvement
  6. Identification of metabolites associated with market preferences and factors affecting their accumulation and that of health-beneficial compounds in food-grade soybean
  7. Soymilk protein yield
  8. Marker-assisted selection for agronomics, alimentary and feed traits
  9. Canola and microbial signals
  10. Integrated canola disease management for stem rot and black leg
  11. Effects of fungicides, biological agents, marine bioproducts and combination treatments to control Sclerotinia stem rot and black leg of canola in Eastern Canada
  12. Integrated pest management strategies against insect pests of canola in Eastern Canada
  13. Yield impacts and insecticide management of swede midge in canola
  14. Canola nutrient management
  15. Effects of plant population on stress tolerance and seed quality of spring canola
  16. Assessment of impact and interactions of emerging crops on potato-based cropping systems (PEI and New Brunswick)
  17. Crop rotation with potatoes (Quebec)
  18. Volunteer canola control
  19. Winter canola rates/dates trial
