Meredith To Deliver Special Report
Long Years Of Service
Dr. Ed King, Mid-South Area Director of USDA-ARS in Stoneville, Miss., echoes Bourland's comments. He's looking forward to hearing Meredith's report on the NCVT's 50th anniversary. But he's equally appreciative of Meredith's involvement in the program over such a long period of time.
King believes that Meredith is one of the leading cotton breeders in the country in the public sector. In particular, he points to Meredith's discovery of the nectariless trait in germplasm development. That trait consistently showed the potential for reducing plant bug populations by 40 percent.
"I am definitely looking forward to Bill's presentation at Beltwide, and I'm also excited that we can salute him for his long years of service," says King. "His tenacity and dedication are wonderful. And he is rigorous in the treatment of his own data."
