Crazy Chromosome World 🧬
Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) shows clear pictures of chromosomes in Aegilops speltoides
This plant carries 3 B chromosomes
Probes:
Green: A-pericentromeric region
Magenta: B chromosome specific

Amazing plant root development 🌾
To decipher the phenomenon of B chromosome elimination in adventitious roots (ARs), I set up the hydroponic system with the help of Mo @LeibnizIPK.
Cuttings from healthy Aegilops produce ARs on the nods and ARs develop themselves rapidly 😍
AI powered tethered drones picking apples 🤯
These drones use AI image recognition models to determine ripeness and sugar levels in the apples.
Then they use a little arm to pick them.
AI & robotics will completely revolutionize the agriculture industry.
Another nice Tansley Insight in the pages of our colleagues at @NewPhyt :
"Demystifying the Venus flytrap action potential"

"All plants are electrically excitable, but only few are known to fire a well-defined, all-or-nothing action potential."
You can make an entire figure in R using the patchwork package. A tutorial is available at my GitHub to generate this exact figure (https://t.co/foCcoTBPAM). It covers controlling layout, relative heights/widths of panels, hierarchical assembly, and position of letter labels.
Since mid-June, @LeibnizIPK has been equipped with a new, state-of-the-art sequencing device. @Nils__Stein explains the improvements over the previous model, the possible applications and how the purchase was financed.

Let me introduce my cool supervisors 😎
Finally, I had a meeting with all three of my supervisors for the first time since I started my PhD last year 🤣😍
Everything is going smoothly and we will soon unravel the mystery of the B chromosome 🔬🧬
