Tomorrow I will be starting up my own lab at AAFC Saskatoon as a Research Scientist in Pulse Crop Genomics.
I'm excited to start a new program, including work on pathogenic and symbiotic plant-microbe interactions and pathogen genomics.

@lastmountain36 @CornelsenCCC @SaskCanola @canolacouncil @FrmerAtHerTable @4nierfarms All varieties are tested for blackleg resistance over several years of field trials by WCC/RCC but it's not a requirement for the breeders to disclose the specific genetics behind that resistance. That's a marketing decision each company makes.
@lastmountain36 @CornelsenCCC @SaskCanola @canolacouncil @FrmerAtHerTable @4nierfarms It not public knowledge until the company decides to add it to the label. If it's not there ask your seed supplier why it isn't.
Hello anyone with a sweep net. We've had south winds and aster leafhoppers in grasses and #alfalfa at the @AAFC_Canada Saskatoon Research Farm. Can you take 100 sweeps from somewhere green and freeze them in a plastic bag with date and site on it, and we'll see where they went!
@drich82 Wait, correct me if I'm wrong but aren't those last year's onions? Did he pull them out of storage (all those sheds behind him) and dump them on the ground?
Springer has released over 400 science books downloadable as pdf for free as part of 'Free Textbooks and Library Link special issue during Covid 19 package'. Lots of stats books and some ecology ones as well

NEW: a lot of data on reported Covid deaths is highly suspect, so we’ve been looking into excess mortality — how many more people than usual have been dying around the world in recent weeks?

@ScottGottliebMD@KamounLab The majority of our personal interactions occur indoors. Those contacts are also much more traceable. The only reason they could cluster each outbreak was because it occurred indoors in a traceable setting, thus so few outdoor clusters. The data set is not random!
