A nice way to say goodbye to 2023, a year that was a lot to deal with. Very lucky to have had the opportunity to work with this big group of great researchers, and in particular PhD candidate Hongrui Wang hONGRUI. academic.oup.com/hr/advance-art… webapp:grapecoldhardiness.shinyapps.io/grape_freezing…

Enjoy an exciting 9 week #internship working on exciting science or business development projects that impact the New York state farm and food Cornell AgriTech this summer. Applications to apply for our program are due 1/22/24. cals.cornell.edu/cornell-agrite…

Applications open for the 2024 Summer Scholar program! Interested undergrads please apply. Lots of cool projects and we love the new energy students bring to climate adaptation. cals.cornell.edu/cornell-agrite… Cornell AgriTech 🌎🍇🍎

It’s no secret that climate change is already impacting wine grape crop quality, production & sustainability. M.S./Ph.D. horticulture student @faithtwinamaani is researching how to adapt crops to grow under climate change-induced environmental stress. gradschool.cornell.edu/spotlights/stu…

Some cool winter research to share. We can't see much from the outside, but in collaboration with Judith Boekee Cornell AgriTech, we are tracking variation in freeze response in apple trees. Video is of apoplastic freeze events in young trees. Be patient! #ColdHardiness 🍎❄️

.Cornell CALS Cornell AgriTech horticulture doctoral candidate Hongrui Wang developed a model that estimates the temperatures that cause freeze damage in a dozen grape cultivars. Read more from Cornell Chronicle: news.cornell.edu/stories/2024/0…

Let’s celebrate innovation that nurtures our planet! This weekend at Missouri History Museum, Allison Miller is giving a @TEDxStouis talk on her work with perennials & sustainable agriculture. #InternationalDayofPlantHealth Learn about her work: loom.ly/AS9SAN8

New preprint from the lab biorxiv.org/content/10.110… describing the conservation of the grape sex determining region (SDR) across angiosperm genomes and detailed history within Vitaceae leading to dioecy in Vitis and Muscadinia. Collaboration with Jason P. Londo🏳️‍🌈🍇🍎shiversherlock.bsky.social

A web-based tool developed by Cornell PhD student Hongrui Wang enables NY grape growers to select a weather station near them and any of 12 grape varieties to get a prediction of whether their vines may have experienced freeze damage. #graperesearch tinyurl.com/bdhsr58a

The website has been updated and now predicts cold hardiness for closer to 50 cultivars at 1000s of locations

Fresh from the lab 🍇🧬: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. We describe long-term conservation of haplotype-specific methylation patterns in clonal lineages, resolving mapping bias, collapsed haplotypes, and structural variation using a novel phased, graph-based approach.

Some months later, the work is now published Nature Communications - nature.com/articles/s4146…

Great work summarizing aspects of spring freezes led by two PhD students in the lab, Francisco and Erica. Check it out!
