Weekly photo competition runner up, 5 October 2012: maize demonstration plot at Kiboko, Kenya
One of this week's runners up in our photo competition for CIMMYT staff and friends, this image by Regina Tende was taken at the Kenya Agricultural Research Institute's (KARI) Kiboko Research Station, where CIMMYT works in partnership with KARI to carry out large-scale drought screening of maize. It shows a demonstration plot of different maize germplasm.
Regina works for KARI, based at KARI-Katumani, and is currently studying for a PhD in Plant Breeding at University of KwaZulu-Natal, in South Africa. She did her Master’s degree research with CIMMYT, supervised by Stephen Mugo, and in 2009 she was a visiting scientist at CIMMYT-Kenya for six months. We are very happy to hear that her relationship with CIMMYT is set to continue to grow and strengthen, as her request to do her PhD research with CIMMYT has just been accepted.
