I'm so proud to share that my mother's painting of the painted burrowing frog is in on the cover of @PLOSGenetics!

Happy to share this part of my PhD in the Benfey Lab @DukeU. It was a really rewarding collaboration with @ShaoYanlin in Chuanzao Mao's lab @ZJU_China. We used a combination of phenotyping methods to identify a root system architecture (RSA) mutant and clone the underlying gene.
