Vitis Underground

NSF Plant Genome project studying graft transmissible effects of rootstocks on grapevine shoots #vitisunderground

[National Grape Research Alliance @GrapeResearch]

In the multi-year “Root to Shoot” @vitisroots project, a team led by @ajmiller4233 analyzed 7K+ Chambourcin leaves from vines ungrafted & grafted to 3 rootstocks. Rootstock and above-ground environment interact to modulate leaf composition. #graperesearch https://t.co/0Cx3oCXsc8

Check out the latest work from Vitis Underground postdoc, @EigenZach!

Our work on the influence of rootstock genotype on scion elemental composition over time and environmental variation is out now in @PlantDirectJ: https://t.co/HAAgZ246rb

Heading home from #ASEV in San Diego - grapes and wine all the time! The future of wine in a changing climate, smoke effects on wine, optimizing site, rootstock and scion combinations, cover crops in vineyards, and so much more - happy to share our @vitisroots work too!! 🍇🍷

A long-term study shows that rootstocks act to modulate growth and other scion traits like the ratio of yield to vegetative growth, and can act like climate to affect growth rings, which can be used to monitor genetic, environmental effects. #graperesearch https://t.co/yV6s9dESk5

Congratulations to the new Dr. Joel Swift @PingSwift on a terrific dissertation defense today @SLU_Official @SLUBiology @DanforthCenter! #firstgen college grad now PhD Joel studied the grapevine microbiome & made wonderful contributions to our grapevine grafting @vitisroots team.

[Allison Miller @ajmiller4233]

Please join me in congratulating Dr. Zach Harris @EigenZach who beautifully and convincingly defended his dissertation today @SLU_Official @SLUBiology @DanforthCenter! #firstgen college student, now PhD, celebrating here with his family. Great job Zach!!! 🍇

[Zachary Harris @EigenZach]

I am defending my dissertation on April 29th! The public seminar will begin at 9AM CST taking place both IRL and over Zoom. If you would like to attend, please DM me for details.
