Excited about our work on sorghum photosynthetic response under drought!!! Published in JXB @jxbotany.bsky.social done with Diego Ortiz now at INTA Manfredi. It was great to work with you @DiegoOrtizCba!!!!. Funded by U.S. National Science Foundation. ISU College of Agriculture and Life Sciences Iowa State Agronomy. academic.oup.com/jxb/advance-ar…

Excited to announce Plant Genomes Online (PGO), a free virtual conference on April 27, 2022. PGO will be a 24 consecutive hours, with international hosts, live talks, and multiple networking events on Gathertown. Website and abstract submissions coming in January!

The last paper from Martha Ibore Natukunda 's thesis is finally out in BMC BMC Genomics: doi.org/10.1186/s12864…

Thank you ndugu Naturinda Eliab

Thank you Noah @NoahFahlgren and Suxing @suxingliu for taking the time to review our 3D sorghum leaf angle GWAS project. Peer review is important but (usually) thankless work. Can see their thoughtful and thorough reviews under "Peer Review History": peerj.com/articles/12628/

Are there any R courses for people who are fairly proficient, but sort of learnt it as they went and probably have some terrible blind spots, the filling in of which would make their lives significantly easier? Asking for myself, and I feel like there must be a ton of us #rstats

Posted just before Christmas: High depth (38x) resequencing of the sorghum association panel (400 lines). New high density marker data enables the identification of new genes/signals in existing phenotypic data used to conduct GWAS in the past.

2021 was a bold and bright year for Augustana and our campus community. Take a look back at the top AU stories from the year. Read 📰➡️ Bit.ly/AU2021Recap | #WeAreAU

73 students 👥 10 countries 🌏 Endless adventures ☑️ As January interim classes come to a close, we highlight those who had the opportunity to study away with Augie International. Plan your own AU expedition! | augie.edu/studyaway | #WeAreAU |

Happy Women's Day to you all. I am so happy to have participated in a Women in Science Outreach Event yesterday. It feels great to explain science hands-on!

Can any plant scientists/ breeders explain what has happened to create this dahlia? Spotted in The Blue Mountains Botanic Garden

Our BMC Genomics paper on RNAseq to reveal genetic control of leaf angle across the sorghum canopy has been highlighted in Sorghumbase News!!!. sorghumbase.org/post/genetic-f… rdcu.be/cLQJ0 Iowa State Agronomy ISU College of Agriculture and Life Sciences Martha Ibore Natukunda BetsabeMantilla

Restorer #sorghum lines IA100RPS and IA101RPS will be valuable germplasm resources for the development of the sorghum #biofuel industry, esp. in northern latitudes doi.org/10.1002/plr2.2… #openaccess #plantbreeding ISU Sorghum Iowa State Agronomy

I've run over 30 events, coached over 300 speakers, and delivered 100s of presentations myself. Use these 7 tips to make your presentations shine every single time.

Our recent paper with S. Whitham, Mel Bredow Martha Ibore Natukunda Aline Sartor Chicowski & Bliss M. Beernink. A VIGS system for gene functional validation in sorghum. It works really well!!
