Dylan is a grad student presenting this excellent poster on gene expression in canola. Canola is a allotetraploid - two genomes combined into one, and he found that one genome dominates early in seed development, and the other one does later on! What great colors! #plantbio18

Another canola poster with great colors and presentation! Deirdre is a grad student studying methylation and gene expression in canola. She also found a mystery transcription factor in her favorite developmental tissue and discovered what genes it regulates! #plantbio18
