 2nd webinar in the ACRYRED WG2 series 

Join the second webinar in the ACRYRED WG2 series:

“From Gene to Grain: Integrated Approaches to Free Asparagine and Acrylamide Mitigation.”

📅 24 April 2026
⏰ 11:00 a.m. (Rome time)

🔬  Dr Antonio Pescatore (University of Florence, Italy) will present:
“Reducing Acrylamide Risk in Wheat: Selenium Fertilization Targeting Free Asparagine.”

Free asparagine is the main precursor of acrylamide in cereal-based foods. This talk explores how foliar selenium fertilization can reduce its levels in wheat grain. Results show this approach can lower acrylamide risk while maintaining yield and improving grain quality.
