@rosaraudales Congratulations Rosa!

Sandcherry is a native North American shrub that tolerates drought, heat, salt and deer and grows in dry, sandy, infertile soil. A new cultivar from @UConnCAHNR, Jade Parade®, will be useful as groundcover for challenging landscapes.

@jmahoney515 @UConn @UConnCAHNR Great job today with your defense seminar! A well deserved PhD. I will be sad to see you leave the lab, but you will do great things in your career.

[Mark Brand @mbrand122]

Here is the material we will be working with in lab this week. Don’t forget to read the discussion paper. #UconnPlantTissueCulture

Phew! Fortunately all of the professors hemp culture initiates are free from contamination. #UConnPlantTissueCulture

[Mark Brand @mbrand122]

@Jellyphipsy Matt, looks like only some of your carrot seedlings are contaminated. Be careful not to spread yhe bacteria to your clean “explants”. Now there’s a good TC vocabulary word.

TA for the Plant Tissue Culture course, Jon Mahoney, looking a bit concerned about some of the sterile technique he is observing. #UConnPlantTissueCulture

We have a great group of enthusiastic students in the Plant Tissue Culture course at UConn this semester - SPSS4650! #UconnPlantTissueCulture
