Excited to share our most recent preprint! @Munan_Lyu, Hiroyuki Iida and co generated a comprehensive transcriptome atlas of the developing root undergoing secondary growth. scRNAseq data was validated with close to 100 fluorescent reporter lines! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Good thing I wore my nice field clothes that day.
Thanks to a study spearheaded by Danforth Center Senior Research Scientist Molly Hanlon, PhD, a new tool will help develop crops that better withstand drought, acquire nitrogen, and store carbon deeper in soil.

“Reed’s favorite flower was the showy lady’s slipper, the state flower of Minnesota, an orchid notoriously difficult to cultivate, like the careers of many of the women she wrote about. Its Latin name is Cypripedium reginae, with reginae meaning queen.” nytimes.com/2023/04/22/obitu…

I am looking for synthetic tetraploids in wheat, preferably, but any species would work. Any ideas? I am also interested in the cotton ploidy system, but I have not come across any sources for obtaining synthetic tetraploids in the US. @JonathanFWendel, any suggestions?
