# overview
I am responsible for conducting a forage legume improvement program for Texas.  The primary emphasis of this program is the development of reliable, productive, pest resistant forage legumes that complement existing forage-animal production systems or allow development of new systems.  This research includes: forage legume germplasm collection and evaluation; crossing and population development; pest resistance screening; selection for various traits, including seed production, maturity, and ecoregion adaptation.  Cultivar development, ranging from initial selections to licensing and PVP applications, is a large component of this program.
