Virginia Walbot born in 1946, is an American agriculturalist and botanist who is a biology〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://med.stanford.edu/profiles/virginia-walbot )〕 professor at Stanford University. She was a member of a team that developed a new sweet corn.〔(Dongxue, David S. Skibbe, and Virginia Walbot.

Plant Reproduction 26.4 (2013): 329-338. Academic Search Premier. Web. 1 Feb. 2014. )〕 She co-authored an article for corn farming in the 4th issue, volume 26 of Plant Reproduction titled "Maize Male sterile 8 (Ms8), a putative β-1,3-galactosyltransferase, modulates cell division, expansion, and differentiation during early maize anther development.''" ==Life== Virginia Walbot first began working with corn when she used to help grow and sell it on her family's farm in Southern California. Later in the 1970's she began her interest in corn when she met Barbara McClintock, who also worked with corn. That is when Walbot began visiting McClintock's lab in Cold Spring Harbor and when she became devoted to the studies of the sex life of corn. In 1967, Virginia Walbot received a BA degree in Biology at Stanford University. In 1969-1972, attended Yale to work on embryogenesis to receive a M. Phil and PH.D. Dr. Walbot attended the University of Georgia to postdoctoral work. She became a faculty Member at Washington University in St. Louis. Later Dr. Walbot returned to Stanford as a professor in the Department of Biological Science. Dr. Walbot first worked with maize while working with Ed Coe in the University of Missouri. Dr. Walbot participates in societies like the American Society for Cell Biology, AAAS, AIBS, Genetics Society, and International Society for Plant Molecular Biology〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=http://www.k-state.edu/bmb/seminars/hageman/2001-walbot.html )〕 Published two books Developmental Biology in 1987and The Maize Handbook in 1993.〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=http://web.stanford.edu/~walbot/cv/cv_walbot.pdf )〕 Virginia Walbot has published a total of 126 journal articles.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://med.stanford.edu/profiles/virginia-walbot?tab=publications )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Virginia Walbot」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
