Lauren Frankel demonstrates that substitution rate across lineages (biologically real but assumed not important) makes a HUGE difference for the performance of our standard hybridization-detection methods! Read more on bioRXiv! #Botany2023

In two poplar species (P. trichocarpa & balsamifera), introgression might be increasing hybrid individual capacity for growth (fitness) across novel environments, particularly extra cold places. Dr. Jill Hamilton #Botany2023 #PopUpPoplar

Some of the Nigerian contigent and our Venezuelan sister at the ongoing #Botany2023 in Boise-Idaho. It's been nice meeting new friends and listening to all the great talks from everyone, representing different institutions, from far and near.

Sometimes you meet PIs who seem friendly but their students tell a completely different story. Talk to the students and postdocs. If the PI doesnt want you to - something is off so run to the hills. Always ask lab members about lab culture and environment. Best advice I ever got

Rousing final #Botany2023 afternoon talk by Naomi Fraga @naomibot.bsky.social on rare plants threatened by energy projects (solar, Li mining): there's hope, we have tools, and we can have both biodiversity and renewable energy development #Teambuckwheat

My first Botany meeting was so much fun! Lovely to see these shiny old friends and meet new ones, lots of great research and conversations. Uzezi Okinedo-Nwokolo even won a poster award! I'll be back, #Botany2023

Congrats to this round of 16 #2023CSPNewInvestigators selected to work with the @JGI. These folks, all new to the JGI, will do important work with synthetic biology, sequencing and metabolomics. Check out their projects! (🧵) Berkeley Lab DOE Office of Science jgi.doe.gov/jgi-announces-…

Excited to be part of this community!
