Mission:
The Urbana, IL Location is comprised of three Management Units; Soybean/Maize Germplasm, Pathology, and Genetics; Invasive Weed Management; and Photosynthesis Research. The Soybean/Maize Germplasm unit identifies the rate limiting steps in nitrogen metabolism and maintains and evaluates soybean germplasm and corn genetic stocks. The Invasive Weed Management unit develops improved pest management systems that are efficient and environmentally safe. Research in the Photosynthesis Research unit identifies and modifies rate-limiting factors of the photosynthetic process, including response to environmental stress and global change.
