TWAS facilitates gene-scale trait genetic dissection through gene expression, structural variations, and alternative splicing in soybean #research #PlantCommunications cell.com/plant-communic…

Dr. Korth (Nate Korth)'s paper mapping genes in sorghum that create changes in human gut microbiomes fed different kinds of sorghum is out today in G3. doi.org/10.1093/g3jour…

Most of my first set of GMO purple tomatoes were devoured by ravenous rabbits or squirrels: only this one survived unscathed to make it into the kitchen.

Typically a good sign if administrators are excited to meet in the corn field instead of the office. Thanks for coming out, Derek McLean ARD! (Our Dean of Research.)

Measuring photosynthesis with a LiCor looks the most like what non-scientists picture when they hear “plant science.”

Thanks again to the organizing team Ed Cahoon Ruth Welti and Kent Chapman for the chance to present the recently submitted work of Zach Shomo ! And for featuring posters by Evan William LaBrant Cailin Smith Fangyi Li, and Jithesh Vijayan!

I enjoyed reading this paper this morning. Highly recommended to photosynthesis research society to read.

Congratulations Ramesh

In this update review, Zach Shomo, Fangyi Li, Cailin Smith, and I summarize recent updates on how membranes tolerate cold. Sydney Edmonds helped with the intro as part of her High School project!

When things get overwhelming, and I feel like quitting, I have experienced great solace in taking time to reflect on a question; "what is lesson" helps move forward by getting unstuck and immediately gaining something from each situation.

Feeling inspired after visiting Ed Buckler and discussing science with the Buckler lab Cornell University Amazing to see their wonderfully maintained Tripsacum collection in the field 😍

My second first author paper on NPQ and GWAS. This time it is on sorghum. Thank you Nikee Shrestha James Schnable Kasia Glowacka.

Great time at #EastCampusDiscoveryDays with UNL CROPS and Plant Bio! If you visited, thank you!

Had a great experience sharing our research on plant-pest interaction to young, curious minds #Science #outreach Nebraska Entomology

Congratulations Nikee Shrestha for successfully defending your PhD candidacy. Proud of you!!! Schnable Lab

Today, I passed my PhD candidacy. Right after the exam, I called my parents to tell them I passed. The first thing they said or asked was 'How many marks did you get?' If you are Asian, you can relate haha.
