Dana R MacGregor
Dr Dana MacGregor is a plant molecular geneticist with expertise in understanding how plants survive the challenges of their environment and how they pass these beneficial traits on to secure the success of subsequent generations. She is currently focusing on agricultural weeds, Nature’s ultimate survivors. She and her colleagues are working to derive a mechanistic understanding of the traits that allow agricultural weeds to elude chemical or cultural controls. Current projects focus on developing lab-based molecular resources, tools and techniques. These projects aim to explore genotype-to-phenotype and phenotype-to-genotype hypotheses in problematic weeds such as Alopecurus, Lolium, and Amaranthus species.
