Early life and education


Parrott became interested in the clover plant as a teenager growing up in Kentucky.[3] He received his B.S. in agronomy from the University of Kentucky, and his M.S. and Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1985.[4]



Career


Parrott joined the faculty of the University of Georgia in 1988.[5]



Research


Parrott has been researching the genetic origins of the four-leaf clover, and they have come closest to discovering the plant's genetic roots.[6] He has also researched the genetic map of the soybean, with the goal of identifying genes that control its growth.[7]



Views


An outspoken advocate of biotechnology,[8] Parrott has been critical of non-genetically modified cereals, noting that they tend to have fewer nutrients than genetically modified ones.[9][10] He has also argued that the dangers of mutation breeding, as well as those about genes in genetically modified crops spreading to other crops, are small or nonexistent.[1][11]
