There are still tickets for our Pint of Science UK session on Wednesday 'Citizen Science: Research Gone Wild' where I will be presenting a retrospective on the Great British Liverwort Hunt which we undertook in 2021! pintofscience.co.uk/event/citizen-… Sebastian Schornack George R. L. Greiff

On International Day of #planthealth , Sebastian Schornack highlights why prioritising plant health should be a top priority for governments & explores some promising new strategies to bolster plant health

Here is an example of our research into healthier crops Sainsbury Laboratory Cambridge University (SLCU) -
Sabine Brumm, Matthew Macleod, Isaac Coven & others study barley genes that are essential for pathogens to enter and cause disease.

There are about 80,000 Giant Sequoia remaining in native California. You ready for this……….

……..there are about 500,000 in Great Britain, although all are about 160 years old

And because of changes to climate, this looks increasingly how the species will survive

We have also launched AlphaFold Server, a free platform that scientists around the world can use for non-commercial research. 🔬

They can harness AlphaFold 3’s predictions and test hypotheses with just a few clicks - no matter their technical expertise. →…

We have updated the Marhchantia Genome Database, MarpolBase. The high quality genome sequences assembled from PacBio HiFi sequencing reads (ver7.1) have now become available. marchantia.info

When we think of studying plant health, live plants come to mind. But how can dried plants help us unlock the solutions to plant disease?

Today, we’re exploring this as part of #PlantHealthWeek , following the potato blight pathogen that triggered the Irish Potato Famine.
