Hutton Harvest
We would usually produce the Hutton Harvest in June, to coincide with exhibiting at the Cereals event. Cereals 2020 will take place online instead with virtual plot tours, webinars, live chats and video demos paving the way for knowledge exchange across the industry.
In the spirit of this, we've gathered information about some projects that would have been highlighted as part of our display and present them to you virtually. These are just a few of examples of commercially relevant cereal projects taking place at the James Hutton Institute, home of the International Barley Hub.
For further information, the relevant contacts are given in the articles.

The 44,000 SNP chip for barley (known as a 50K SNP chip) allows researchers and breeders to examine variation at over 40,000 different genes, many of which control important phenotypes.
An information portal - the first step in creating the International Barley Hub, a world-leading centre to translate excellence in barley research and innovation.
