[Keith Slotkin @Slotkin_Lab]

So proud of my lab for our latest work out today in @Naturepub. We took advantage of transposable elements and CRISPR to perform targeted insertion of cargo DNA in the Arabidopsis and soy genomes. Led by @mcliupeng. https://t.co/wSvr1uuEbF. 🧵

[Danforth Center @DanforthCenter]

Scientific journal @Nature has published research authored by scientists in our @Slotkin_Lab. The publication focuses on a technology called TATSI, which enables faster and less expensive production of improved plants. Learn more: https://t.co/al5QKjErCy
