How have plants evolved to be dioecious? Join me to find out! PhD candidate at the University of Florida. #dioecy #moss #CRISPR #sexchromosomes #plantgang

One of my students made this during class today as we had a #zoom chat roast debate between #angiosperms vs #bryophytes. This is only the beginning. #TeamMoss

Happy solstice! ⁦@Bryo_phyte_me⁩ gave a terrific final seminar on her work bringing CRISPR knockouts and knock-ins to Ceratodon

[Emilie-Kate Tavernier @Bryo_phyte_me]

Thanks Dr. McDaniel :)

A big congrats to Dr. Tavernier!!! ⁦@Bryo_phyte_me⁩ ⁦@UFBiology⁩

[Emilie-Kate Tavernier @Bryo_phyte_me]

Samples submitted!! @UF_ICBR 😁😁😁

Mystery #fungus from the lab air? Who/what is this? 😬 #micology

[Emilie-Kate Tavernier @Bryo_phyte_me]

@JimmyPeniston Haha thanks Jimmy! They were having a party on my car this morning :)

[Emilie-Kate Tavernier @Bryo_phyte_me]

What are these sentient dandelion tufts on my car? ._. #Entomology

[Emilie-Kate Tavernier @Bryo_phyte_me]

Thank you Matt!!! I'm thankful to have been a part of this symposium. 😁

[Matt Johnson, PhD @mossMatters]

Cool to see progress using CRISPR in Ceratodon by @Bryo_phyte_me -- important work for the future of moss genetics and evolution research! #Botany2021

[Lauren Whitehurst @igotflowerpower]

Great presentations in the #CRISPR colloquium continue with @Bryo_phyte_me and @polyestploid! #nonmodelsystems #Bryophytes #Brassica #sexlinkedgenes

[Shelly Gaynor @ShellyGaynor]

Amazing way to include students in #Botany2021 symposiums! Two videos, one slot, and 2x Grad Students (@Bryo_phyte_me and @polyestploid).

This year's symposium includes 36 talks, where 4 are from students (11%). BUT, around 50% of #Botany2021 talks are from students.

[Lauren Whitehurst @igotflowerpower]

Looking forward to "Applications of CRISPR technology across the plant tree of life" today! Many interesting uses of non-model systems for CRISPR applications. @ShanShengchen introduced me to this concept with his research in #Tragopogon polyploids! @soltislab

[Emilie-Kate Tavernier @Bryo_phyte_me]

I'm so excited to present my work on CRISPR in my dioecious moss, Ceratodon purpureus today at #Botany2021 ! Come watch a video of me laughing at my own jokes at 11:15am, and join our discussion panel zoom at 11:45am. 😊

We love to see it 🙏🙏 #AllSocksAreBeautiful

Keeping those ankles protected in the swamp. #AllSocksareBeautiful #CrashBandicoot

[Emilie-Kate Tavernier @Bryo_phyte_me]

@igotflowerpower Thank you for supporting the cause ❤️ #AllSocksAreBeautiful

[Emilie-Kate Tavernier @Bryo_phyte_me]

Climbing above the haters. Were you bullied for not owning No-Show socks in the early 2000s? Share your story and join the movement. #AllSocksAreBeautiful

Bryophyte sex chromosomes? You bet - check out https://t.co/5wlwrjztUb w/ @sarahbcarey and @Kollar_Genetics

This tiny ant is carrying away the head of this much larger ant. This is the most metal thing I've ever seen. #hymenoptera people, what's the backstory here?

[Lauren Whitehurst @igotflowerpower]

My fiancé's car was stolen last night from the Duck Pond area sometime last night/early morning. It's a Black Ford Explorer Limited if you are in the area and happen to see it. He's just gone and finished reporting it all, I am so sad for him. Local advice? Chop shops?

[Emilie-Kate Tavernier @Bryo_phyte_me]

I'm so beyond proud of @Evo_Doro ! She deserves all the hype over this new fixation technique for her squishy critters. ❤️

[Dorothy Mitchell, PhD @Doro_grace]

Super excited to share a fixation technique that I serendipitously discovered and developed with @_AEdgar_. We hope that others will give it a try https://t.co/uZgRj3cXp3

As a fellow victim of sock-shaming as a kid, l applaud your courage! Many of my socks were my mom's hand-me-down, long, cool crazy socks. Not everyone can afford to drop💰on🧦 especially if you just got new shoes. Too poor to be cool? Never that! #Allsocksarebeautiful
