Enough of a break in the rain to get some planting in. Maintaining social distancing makes everything a bit more complicated. #plantscience #plantbreeding #sweetcorn #gradschool #uwmadison https://t.co/Mw1fPvYXrj

We’re KEEPING our DISTANCE
We’re all QUARANTINED
We stay alone (ALL ALONE), for our friends in their time of NEED

Final note from #PAGXXVIII first plenary speaker:
If we can get to 2050 without destoying the world we'll be golden, population size will plateau. The next 30 years will be the most important in the history of agriculture and we better get it right

Collecting seeds from my dried teosinte x maize F1s yesterday. The range of ear morphology is striking! Each plant has upwards of 20 ears. Surprised and pleased with how well the F1s grew and how much seed I got… https://t.co/BIgtPfP301
