Recent @PlantPhys publication with implications for maize breeding by @shanwai1234, @noshjac, and @SpringerNathan of @umncbs in collaboration with @sna8 of @gdcbisu, @pete_crisp of @UQ_News, and @taraenders of @HofstraU. @UMNresearch academic.oup.com/plphys/arti…

Mind blowing.
The FTO gene is associated with obesity in humans. Plants don't have a homolog. What happens when you transgenically express the human FTO in plants?

Excited to share @noshjac's last thesis chapter research. Monitoring accessible chromatin and DNA methylation in four maize genomes. Reveals that a large amount of variable methylation is due to shifting boundaries at the edge of methylated domains

Recent accepted manuscript in @GeneticsGSA led by @noshjac with the Plant Breeding Center affiliate labs of @SpringerNathan & @HirschCandice with implications for maize breeding in collaboration with @uga_genetics, @gdcbisu, @CornellCALS, & @UQ_News. academic.oup.com/genetics/ad…
It's been a pleasure learning from and collaborating with @pete_crisp the past few years! A great opportunity!!
Funded PhD position open now. Epigenomics and biotech at the University of Queensland. Flexible combination of data analysis and molecular biology! Initial data ready to be analysed - great time for some computer work! Pls RT CrispLab.github.io/post/phd_…

Congrats @orionzhou on the awesome paper!
Very nice work by @orionzhou - this is what happens when you ask a talented post-doc to make and compare two networks. Several weeks later they come back with >6000 samples in >40 networks

The data from this project is now available at MaizeGDB including 26 genome pages, ~1 million gene models, 134 BLAST targets, and JBrowse instances for each genome with over 1,000 tracks of data. @corncolors @mbhufford @GrameneDatabase @HirschCandice

We are pleased to release genome assemblies and gene model annotations for 26 maize NAM inbreds for immediate use without restrictions. See nam-genomes.org/. Supported by NSF-1744001 with Matt Hufford (@mbhufford) Doreen Ware, Candice Hirsch (@HirschCandice) #NAMgenomes

Really nice work led by Qing Li and Jing Xu
Qing Li, @SpringerNathan and co profile DNA methylation across inbred lines in maize and identify examples of differentially methylated regions that contain information not fully captured using SNPs

Together with @bogdanoviclab @ryanlisterlab, we review the current knowledge on cytosine DNA methylation across eukaryotes @JMolBiol, based on base-resolution DNA methylome profiling from divergent eukaryotes with a special focus on the animal kingdom. bit.ly/36VwqmS
Don't forget to reach out to @sna8 for a post-doc! She has taught me so much about TEs and is always looking for more fun questions to answer with your help!
I am thrilled to announce that I will be joining the department of Genetics, Development, and Cell Biology at Iowa State University as an assistant professor in January 2020! The Anderson Genomics lab will study plant genomics, TEs, and maize development: andersongenomicslab.github.i…
A great mentor, wonderful person, and thoughtful scientist! Plus, who wouldn't want to go to Australia!
Very excited to share that I am joining the University of Queensland @UQ_News as a Lecturer Feb 2020 and starting a lab in SAFS alongside fantastic colleagues. Exciting epigenomic and genome editing projects in crops to come! On the lookout for students crisplab.github.io/

First it was apple color 🍎 , now they control chili 🌶 heat, are there any plant traits transposons don’t control?
Want a less spicy pepper? Allelic variations due to transposon insertions in putative amino transferase (pAMT) in Capsicum chinense contribute to quantitative differences in capsaicinoid content. doi.org/10.1111/tpj.14462

I highly recommend doing a postdoc with @SpringerNathan!
Interested in studying the sources of gene expression variation? We're looking for a postdoc to study the genetic and epigenetic variation in maize in collaboration with @HirschCandice and other colleagues. Apply at humanresources.umn.edu/conte… (search for job 332463)

In this preprint biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… with Reza Hammond @orionzhou Blake Meyers, Candy Hirsch @SpringerNathan et al we provide a comprehensive view of small RNA populations in multiple tissues of a panel of maize inbreds and hybrids. Some of the key findings include:

Our latest preprint analyzing TE expression dynamics in maize is now online! We assessed per-family TE expression in >800 published RNA-seq datasets to identify which TE families are transcribed and how transcription changes across development, genotypes, and hybrids.
