Great write-up in @ScienceMagazine by @ErikStokstad on the history and potential of #apomixis in #agriculture including our work on Synthetic Apomixis in rice.
The future is bright for clonal seeds!

Happy to share our most recent study with the @SundarLab. We analyzed the transcriptomes or rice plants grown in the presence or absence of soil-derived microbial communities.
Hot off the press in @NewPhyt !

There is a great summary of our latest paper about the rice microbiome during drought and recovery in the @PNASNews journal club blog. Thanks for the write up, @carolynmbeans! https://t.co/SVulOhrMI7
Prolonged drought 'causes a permanent shift in the rhizosphere microbiome, and provides clues to which drought-induced microbiome changes might sustain plant health'. Check it out @NaturePlants and not the playlist...👇
Our most recent paper is out today in @NaturePlants so here’s a thread and a Spotify playlist summarizing our main findings.

Santos-Medellin, @Bulk_Soil, Sundaresan and co show that continually growing rice on the same plot leads to changes in the soil microbiome, driven by the rice roots. This results in reduced growth and increased methanogenic archaea. https://t.co/2bbG7UeObf
