We are pleased to announce our latest paper, out today in nature communications biology. @ErikMurchie @IanRASmillie #photosynthesis #PsbSisawesome https://t.co/Q8IxshDNbF Enhanced thylakoid photoprotection can increase yield and canopy radiation use efficiency in rice

She got zero points.

But we're not allowed to criticize her because it makes her cry. Perhaps if her family and friends had been honest with her, she would not have globally humiliated herself.

Enjoying, yet slightly surreal to be back at my old stomping ground at the University of Sheffield after leaving over 20 years ago for a really interesting symposium on tackling global challenges in plant and soil sciences! @plantspplplanet

@tanvirUoN Congratulations! Absolutely, never give up! 🎓

[Stella Edwards @stelwards]

@LizCh @parkrun @parkrunDE I love the community aspect too. Keeps you going! We have a lovely one near me at a place called conkers, but currently on holiday in Cornwall and nearly did the one at the Eden project this weekend - you have to when you are a plant scientist 😂 but the rain was torrential!!

[Stella Edwards @stelwards]

@LizCh @parkrun @parkrunDE That’s an amazing time, well done! I’m 9 park runs in now as I’ve just started doing them and you are right, you feel so much better after. I don’t think I will ever get 20:11, but already I am down from 39 to 34:40! 💪😃

This years cohort of MSc Biotechnology (plant stream) students thoroughly enjoyed our trip to @KWSUKLtd yesterday to learn all about wheat pre-breeding and hybrid wheat in an industrial setting. Thanks to @CJohn_Bejai and @nickbird28 for hosting us. @UoNBiosciences

[Stella Edwards @stelwards]

The year has gone fast! Looking forward to another year of talks on wheat and other cereals 🌾 this year hosted by Rothamsted research institute. #monogram24

[Stella Edwards @stelwards]

A wonderful day with the @UoNBiosciences MSc Biotechnology plant option students visiting @Elsomsseeds. We had a fascinating time learning all about seed production and plant breeding. Many thanks to @RichTheBreeder, Mark Nightingale and all the team who showed us around.

[Stella Edwards @stelwards]

@doctor_fruitfly Congratulations!

[Stella Edwards @stelwards]

@marcusjb I know. It’s horrific what the locals have lost and are going through. Those privileged enough to afford a holiday should have some sympathy and realise the beautiful island of Rhodes, built on tourism does not need this from the media. 😟

[Stella Edwards @stelwards]

Super proud of @the_jake_hill presenting his poster at the pgr symposium on increasing the diversity of wheat through the wild relative Ae. umbellulata. A lot of crossing has gone into this! 🌾 @UoNBiosciences @Notts_WRC

[Nottingham BBSRC DTP @nottm_bbsrc_dtp]

Love the wild hedge’s growing outside our glasshouses at work. Makes the glasshouse slightly more bearable in the heat whilst crossing!! 🌾 🥵 🌸 @Notts_WRC

[Stella Edwards @stelwards]

Really enjoying the @nature masterclasses on scientific writing and publishing here at Nottingham University. Inspiring to be at the department of Physics next to Einsteins blackboard! @UoNBiosciences #naturemasterclasses

[Alison Bentley @AlisonRBentley]

With harvest underway in Cd. Obregon it’s also approaching in the El Batan screenhouse. New pre-breeding crosses with wild wheat introgression lines developed by @Notts_WRC @UKFutureWheat in progress capturing new sources of diversity for biotic and abiotic stress response 🌾

[Stella Edwards @stelwards]

Really nice talk by @NikkiW_Hortic at the @nottm_bbsrc_dtp spring conference 23. The genetic uniformity of wheat (uniform like stormtroopers!) needs new genetic diversity. By breaking the gametocidal gene, can we get this from Aegilops sharonensis? @Notts_WRC @SurbhiG6

[Monogram Network @MonogramUK]

Where would we be without our top influencers! #monogram23 1/2
