🎸🌹 Rock out with science! Just like an 80s hair band hit with a twist, we're diving into a biological enigma that's sure to strike a chord. Every rose has its prickle... or does it? Read the latest from the Lippman lab team and fantastic collaborators.

New from Lippman Lab and recent PhD grad Dani Ciren on bioRxiv: “A striking paradox is that genes with conserved protein sequence, function and expression pattern over deep time often exhibit extremely divergent cis-regulatory sequences.” More inside…

Please RT. My lab at @CSHL is recruiting a Postdoc to investigate how a plant's environment regulates its growth and development. More information is in the ad below.
Happy 121st Birthday to Barbara McClintock...a beloved member of the CSHL family, one of the most influential geneticists of the 20th century, and winner of the 1983 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine (the first woman to win that prize unshared!)

The new greenhouse tech utilized by CSHL plant biologist @UllasPedmale & team at Uplands Farm is just the kind of blue-sky thinking that could allow scientists to “climate-proof” plants to mitigate the effects of extreme weather on agriculture.@PercivalSci https://t.co/Nhjm82jPRi
When plants have to fight their neighbors for better access to the sunlight, they stunt root growth to focus on getting taller. Assistant Prof @UllasPedmale and his lab found the proteins responsible for this stunted growth. https://t.co/SFk6pJW942
Plant cells like to hide their secrets behind thick walls, but we have a solution(of enzymes) for that! In one of our most challenging labs ever, protoplasting pro @Xiaosa_Xu of the Jackson @MaizeMeristem lab guides us on our quest to single-cell sequence maize roots! #FTPS22
The beauty of plants inspires our art, culture, and even our science! Rob Martienssen guides us through Barbara McClintock’s historic studies on transposons as well as his own lab’s discoveries in plant epigenetics. Featuring a rare look at McClintock’s original colorful corn!
What do plants have to do with cancer? Assistant Prof @UllasPedmale and his lab found that manipulating certain proteins that control the levels of photoreceptors can change how plants grow, which could also have implications in cancer research. https://t.co/oX1JLhAXoz
CSHL Adjunct Professor and @USDA research scientist Doreen Ware and her team led the charge on creating SorghumBase, a website that serves as the first centralized hub for sorghum crop research. @CSHLplants https://t.co/WAj5eEyfNH
Congratulations to Prof and @HHMINews Investigator Rob Martienssen (@CSHLPlants), who has just been elected to the @americanacad! 🎉https://t.co/npkxjrAPh4
Pleased to share new work from the Lippman lab on dynamic evolution of plant paralogues. Great team with former postdocs Choon-Tak Kwon and Cao XU. Just the tip of the iceberg! Solanum Pan-Genome and all its secrets, here we come!!

Assistant Professor @UllasPedmale and his team are studying the way plants perceive and modify their architecture in response to light, and how a genetic tweak could secure the food we need. https://t.co/PF9OWbwg82
