Dear colleagues:
Please distribute this information to potential students.

The Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique (INRA) is seeking an innovative, self-motivate, scientifically oustanding candidate for a post-doctoral position to investigate mechanisms involved in nitrogen deficiency tolerance of bread wheat using a simplified model of C/N relations and root architecture. This work will provide knowledge and new QTL to aid in the development of wheat varieties adapted to low input production systems, which are favoured in Europe due to low market prices and increasing environmental concerns. The position will be based at UMR EGC INRA/INA-PG,  laboratory specialised in C and N interactions at plant and crop level, at Grignon, located 40 km West of Paris. The appointee will spend short periods in INRA Genetics and Breeding units in Rennes and Clermont-Ferrand.
