He finished his career as the Scottish Government's Chief of Potato Breeding and Manager of the Potato Genetics Programme. He has worked on barley, brassicas (kale, swedes, and turnips), and potatoes, conducting research on the use of genetics in plant developing and breeding two kale and three swede cultivars, as well as contributing to the breeding of four more swedes, a turnip, and 27 potatoes. His research included kale population improvement techniques, the genetic basis of heterosis in swedes, the theory and practice of linkage and QTL analysis in tetraploid potatoes, and breeding for quantitative pest and disease resistance (clubroot in kale, powdery mildew in swedes, and late blight and cyst nematodes in potatoes). Dr. Bradshaw is a James Hutton Institute Honorary Associate and an Honorary Fellow of the Indian Potato Association.
In appreciation of his remarkable performance in the field of plant breeding science, and his significant contributions to developing international links in plant breeding research, he is also an Honorary Member of EUCARPIA, the European Association for Research on Plant Breeding. In appreciation of his excellent contribution to potato research and information transmission, he received the coveted 2010 British Potato Industry Award. He has 93 peer-reviewed papers, 53 additional articles, and ten book chapters to his credit. He's also co-edited two volumes with Springer, including Root and Tuber Crops (Book 7 of the Handbook of Plant Breeding Series).
