Wonderful time at the @Rothamsted PhD Symposium and pleased to be awarded with the “Best Poster Presentation” prize! Special thanks to @plantenv @AldoMerotto for the guidance and @DonnaFellowes7 for organising the event.

Excited to share the paper “Experimental methods for phenotypic and molecular analyses of seed shattering in cultivated and weedy rice”. A collaboration between Merotto and Caicedo labs that aimed to provide valuable hints regarding rice seed shattering
