Abigail Norsworthy is a Ph.D. student under the supervision of Dr. Bryan Young. She was raised in Arkansas, where she obtained her B.S. in Crop Science and Agricultural Business in 2023. Joining the Young lab in 2024, her M.S. research focused on diflufenican-based interactions on weed control and soybean safety using phenotyping technology. Today, her research focuses on weed control and crop tolerance to a novel residual herbicide, as well as using the compound in combination with commercially available herbicides to test potential herbicide interactions. Additionally, Abigail will examine herbicide mechanisms and delineate uptake and translocation of the new chemistry using a HPLC.
