Recent @PlantPhys publication with implications for maize breeding by @shanwai1234, @noshjac, and @SpringerNathan of @umncbs in collaboration with @sna8 of @gdcbisu, @pete_crisp of @UQ_News, and @taraenders of @HofstraU. @UMNresearch https://t.co/DY9M2pCTlj

Mind blowing.

The FTO gene is associated with obesity in humans. Plants don't have a homolog. What happens when you transgenically express the human FTO in plants?

Giant potatoes and rice

Excited to share @noshjac's last thesis chapter research. Monitoring accessible chromatin and DNA methylation in four maize genomes. Reveals that a large amount of variable methylation is due to shifting boundaries at the edge of methylated domains

[UMN Plant Breeding Center @UMNplantbreed]

Recent accepted manuscript in @GeneticsGSA led by @noshjac with the Plant Breeding Center affiliate labs of @SpringerNathan & @HirschCandice with implications for maize breeding in collaboration with @uga_genetics, @gdcbisu, @CornellCALS, & @UQ_News. https://t.co/6f9LcB1bOb

@acb2410 a benefit of grad school... athleisure is always acceptable!

[Jaclyn Noshay @noshjac]

@acb2410 I have 100% had that thought before

[Jaclyn Noshay @noshjac]

It's been a pleasure learning from and collaborating with @pete_crisp the past few years! A great opportunity!!

[Peter Crisp @pete_crisp]

Funded PhD position open now. Epigenomics and biotech at the University of Queensland. Flexible combination of data analysis and molecular biology! Initial data ready to be analysed - great time for some computer work! Pls RT https://t.co/ekyYk8FNmN

@acb2410 Lots of things I can't solve lately... chugging all the coffee like a champ haha

[Sarah N. Anderson @sna8]

“Widespread imprinting of transposable elements and young genes in the maize endosperm”

Preprint online now - big thanks to collaborators @orionzhou @km_higgins26 @yanivbrandvain @SpringerNathan

@HMS_Beagles @acb2410 ya... this is my life for sure

[Jaclyn Noshay @noshjac]

Congrats @orionzhou on the awesome paper!

[Nathan Springer @SpringerNathan]

Very nice work by @orionzhou - this is what happens when you ask a talented post-doc to make and compare two networks. Several weeks later they come back with >6000 samples in >40 networks

[Jaclyn Noshay @noshjac]

@ClaireCodes @HirschCandice Congratulations Claire! Excited to have you in the PMB program and look forward to collaborating on fun TE projects!

[MaizeGDB @MaizeGDB]

The data from this project is now available at MaizeGDB including 26 genome pages, ~1 million gene models, 134 BLAST targets, and JBrowse instances for each genome with over 1,000 tracks of data. @corncolors @mbhufford @GrameneDatabase @HirschCandice

This is how we grow corn in Minnesota... 🤦🏼‍♀️

[Nathan Springer @SpringerNathan]

Really nice work led by Qing Li and Jing Xu

[Alex de Mendoza @deMendoza_Alex]

Together with @bogdanoviclab @ryanlisterlab, we review the current knowledge on cytosine DNA methylation across eukaryotes @JMolBiol, based on base-resolution DNA methylome profiling from divergent eukaryotes with a special focus on the animal kingdom. https://t.co/YgcED3BlgI

[Jaclyn Noshay @noshjac]

Don't forget to reach out to @sna8 for a post-doc! She has taught me so much about TEs and is always looking for more fun questions to answer with your help!

[Sarah N. Anderson @sna8]

I am thrilled to announce that I will be joining the department of Genetics, Development, and Cell Biology at Iowa State University as an assistant professor in January 2020! The Anderson Genomics lab will study plant genomics, TEs, and maize development: https://t.co/DEk46J02ih

[Jaclyn Noshay @noshjac]

A great mentor, wonderful person, and thoughtful scientist! Plus, who wouldn't want to go to Australia!

[Peter Crisp @pete_crisp]

Very excited to share that I am joining the University of Queensland @UQ_News as a Lecturer Feb 2020 and starting a lab in SAFS alongside fantastic colleagues. Exciting epigenomic and genome editing projects in crops to come! On the lookout for students https://t.co/HhjPzCBnsv
