Workshop: Applying Sensory Aspects in Plant Breeding

Objective(s):
To present classical and cutting-edge approaches to the use of sensory data in plant breeding
For many culinary and ornamental crops, sensory considerations, such as color, taste, texture, and aroma, are critically-important. This workshop features a blend of classical techniques and cutting-edge molecular approaches used in modern breeding programs for tree fruit, small fruit, vegetable, and floral crops. Included is what will most certainly be a spirited interactive discussion between presenters and participants attending the workshop, as experts in diverse crops and breeding approaches share their experiences and insight.
