Dr. Seth Murray: Corn Breeding History & Future | Ep. 83
In this special episode of The Crop Science Podcast Show, celebrating National Corn Month, Dr. Seth Murray from Texas A&M University shares how high-throughput phenotyping and UAV-based data are transforming modern corn breeding. He explores the role of environmental interactions, what drone imagery is revealing about crop traits, and how phenomics is shaping the future of genetic improvement. Listen now on all major platforms!
"We’re starting to model corn height growth over time with UAV data, and it’s more predictive of yield than just taking an end-of-the-season single measurement."
Meet the guest: Dr. Seth Murray holds a Ph.D. in Plant Breeding and Genetics from Cornell University and a B.S. in Crop and Soil Sciences from Michigan State University. As Professor and Eugene Butler Endowed Chair at Texas A&M University, his work focuses on corn breeding, phenomics, and quantitative genetics to improve crop sustainability in challenging southern environments.
