His research area is on the genetics, breeding, and genetic resources of cereal crops, especially focusing on wheat and triticale. He leads a team that has introduced numerous wheat and triticale varieties to California agriculture and has published extensively on the genetics of characters important in adaptation of wheat to specific environments. He has served on several consultancies in developing countries and was a Fulbright Scholar to Australia in 1976 and Yugoslavia in 1984. NOEL D. VIETMEYER, staff officer and technical writer for this study, is a senior program officer of the Board on Science and Technology for International Development.
