Rosalind Bueckert

Rosalind Bueckert is a Professor in the Department of Plant Sciences at the University of Saskatchewan. Her research focuses on crop growth dynamics, yield responses to environmental factors, and yield formation processes in field crops. She holds a Ph.D. (University of Arkansas), MSc (University of Arkansas), and B.Sc. (Reading University, UK).

Her work emphasizes understanding crop physiology, particularly in chickpea, lentil, and barley systems. Key areas include radiation use efficiency, post-flowering dry matter accumulation, and early detection of seed sprouting. She teaches courses such as PLSC222 (Introduction to Field Crops), PLSC417 (Crop Physiology), and PLSC898 (Crops and Climate Change).

Recent publications highlight advancements in understanding crop-microclimate interactions and genetic traits influencing maturity. She collaborates on projects addressing yield optimization and crop adaptation to environmental conditions.
