Postdoc position for Citrus scion breeding with USDA Ag, Research Service in Ft. Pierce, FL

by Jung, Sook

Posted by Ed Stover, ed.stover(a)usda.gov<mailto:ed.stover@usda.gov> ------------------------------------- We have grant funds for a postdoc to work on citrus scion breeding. The ideal candidate would have a strong interest in genomics-driven conventional breeding, complemented with an interest in physiological markers for disease tolerance. It is likely that the permanent ARS scion breeding position would become vacant near the end of this postdoc appointment and, if so, the postdoc with experience in this program could be a strong candidate to compete for this position. The successful candidate will be working with what is likely the most extensive array of citrus scion material ever developed and in an era of abundant funding for related work . The position is at the US Horticultural Research Lab in Ft. Pierce, FL. There are about 25 faculty at this site and 200 employees. It is in a very desirable location, seven miles from excellent beaches, world-class fishing etc. It is immediately adjacent to a University of Florida research center and a few miles from Indian River State College. Interested scientists should contact ed.stover@usda,gov<mailto:ed.stover@usda,gov> US citizenship will greatly expedite hiring. Position starts at 66K with full federal benefits -------------------------------------------------- Sook Jung, Ph.D. Assistant Research Professor of Bioinformatics Department of Horticulture Washington State University
