I recently moved my lab to Purdue University and am looking for graduate students. We are working at the interface of population genomics, quantitative genetics and functional genomics to understand how plants adapt to extreme environments. Reach out if you would like to discuss potential projects.

There are lots of answers out there that are beautiful because the truth of the system is beautiful. If I find one of these beautiful facts, it doesn’t make me brilliant. Just right place and right time. True scientific heroes acknowledge that fact.

Out after peer review, collaborative study from Nordborg & Weigel labs with help from many others. Not the largest collection of new Arabidopsis thaliana genomes, but we hopefully put forward some good ideas for how to think about pangenomes and their analysis!

Like I mentioned last week I like it when plants find a way against all odds. It is not just the perseverance and adaption. But also, that we can learn something from how those pioneering plants manage to survive against all odds. 🧵1/3

Plants in a saline environment have no other choice than to adapt. Spanish and French researchers show one of those adaptions in the newly published research “Parallel evolution of salinity toleran…

Twenty years ago this month Kevin Wright and I set out on an 18,000 mile journey from Durham, NC across North America to collect monkeyflowers. The seeds from that trip (my third rotation project) have given rise to major advances and scores of scientific publications over the past two decades.

Lots of #arabidopsis mixed with the #tulips in the #JardinBotanico in #Madrid. I asked the local expert Carlos Alonso-Blanco: they likely came from Holland with the bulbs or the soil 🤦🏻
