ASTA’s international team attended #SAAseedCongress, an event that brought together seed professionals, plant breeders, researchers, policymakers, + gov officials. It was great opportunity to network, build new partnerships, + tackle key trade + regulatory issues 🤝 @SAA__seed

Plant virologists:
Have you ever wondered what else is in your plant RNA-seq data besides viruses? 🌿
Lots of traces from other pathogens and pests! 🦠🪲

I have never been to a New Year’s party worth getting a hangnail over, let alone COVID, even if “mild.” I’m 368 days out from my diagnosis of “mild”
COVID and still dealing with chronic migraines, fatigue, insomnia and decreased exercise tolerance. And I never even had a fever.
Thank you @WomenAgScience @drearus_ for writing this article about my journey as a Plant Pathologist! #womeninscience #WomenInSTEM @plantdisease

Plant-human communication is finally here...and it's wonderfully weird. 🥬
Spinach has been engineered to send emails when it finds specific compounds.
This tech could be used to detect landmines, pollution, and even upcoming droughts.
The ultimate superfood...!
