After beginning this project 9 years ago, the last manuscript from my PhD is finally published! In it, we identified several candidate genes underlying natural variation in maize root metaxylem phenotypes under well-watered and drought conditions. acsess.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
Integrating GWAS with a gene co‐expression network better prioritizes candidate genes associated with root metaxylem phenes in maize
Root metaxylem phenotypes are an under-explored target for crop improvement for drought resilience.
A traditional genome-wide association study (GWAS) paired with a gene co-expression network found .....

This is the first year since 2011 that I haven't had a field season to manage and it's odd. Freeing...but strange.

It's U.S. Open week at Pinehurst! This plant biologist is happy to see an official list of plant species diversity off the fairway. Originally shared by Smylie Kaufman.

I've taken a long break from social media, but decided to give Bluesky a go. If you're interested in #roots, #physiology, #genomics, #transcriptomics, really anything #plantbiology related, or oddly specific sports takes, give me a follow!

Finally making the move over here. Follow me if you're into plants, roots, abiotic stress, and the occasional sports take!
