It is my great pleasure to announce ggPlantmap (https://t.co/s8nhbCXx4z), an open-source R package to create ggplot maps from plant images. Now, you can create beautiful plant heatmaps to be visualized and modified in a R coding environment.
Congratulations to Matias Kirst for being awarded the title of Distinguished Professor! This title recognizes Dr. Kirst’s remarkable accomplishments in the field of forest genomics and quantitative genetics, both nationally and internationally.

New preprint on scGPT: first foundation large language model for single cell biology, pretrained on 10 million cells.
Just as text is made of words, cells are characterized by genes
Some thoughts on how cool this is & why it challenges the status quo of single cell analysis🧵🧵

An ORNL-led team discovered the gene in agave that governs when the plant goes dormant and used it to create poplar trees that nearly doubled in size, increasing biomass yield for biofuels production and carbon sequestration. 🧬

Congratulations John! My Family wasn't sure if my father's record would ever be broken! After 23 years - I cant lie its a little bittersweet, but amazing to see the love for the sport & size this species can get.

My paper on the role of NIN in the sister of the nitrogen-fixing clade is now accepted.
It surprised us, but we find LCO-induced NIN orthologs in Poplar, and a possible ancestral function for NIN in regulating root architecture in response to mycorrhizae
