This paper is a tour de force from many friends and collaborators across Solanum expertise! Check it out to learn about the behavior of paralogs in genomes plus the Solanum genus and it's incredible potential for new crops! #plantscienceresearch
🚨New paper published in @nature.com! Using pan-genetics across the Solanum genus🍅🥔🍆we reveal why gene duplications🧬are major contingencies in crop engineering. My postdoc work in the Lippman lab @CSHL, collab. with @katiejenike.bsky.social @mikeschatz.bsky.social chatz.bsky.social and many others!
Solanum pan-genetics reveals paralogues as contingencies in crop engineering - Nature
Gene duplication and subsequent paralogue diversification are major obstacles to genotype-to-phenotype predictability.

🦋 Thank you @cathhodsman.bsky.social for highlighting pollinators link to native plants.
These interactions matter for biodiversity and resilient ecosystems.

Did u know? The Hawk-moth family are impressive moths. The intense heat this summer has meant that there's been an influx of Hummingbird Hawk-moths from The Continent,which has been exciting to see. If you want to accommodate their 🐛,you'll need to plant their food plants - Lady's Bedstraw. 🌿🌱🐛🌍🪲🌱🇬🇧

Thrilled to share our latest preprint, an interdisciplinary look at epistasis between variants in the coding and noncoding genome! #plantscienceresearch www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Cryptic variation fuels plant phenotypic change through hierarchical epistasis
Cryptic genetic variants exert minimal or no phenotypic effects alone but have long been hypothesized to form a vast, hidden reservoir of genetic diversity that drives trait evolvability through epist...

Key finding 2:
Chloroplast biogenesis responds to cell size in the rice bundle sheath, and this relationship can be influenced by hormone treatments.

🌱Plant responses to stress are not always what we expect.
JFR research examines how mild stress can influence developmental stability and stress responses in plants.

For fruit lovers: dehiscence zone patterning in California poppy does not require SEEDSTICK, but restricting endocarp cell division and expansion does! Check it out here: rdcu.be/d6sua ...we are still clueless about poppy's dehiscence zone genes

Nice work on evolution of genetic interaction between cis-reg elements in floral development! This study really hammered home for me the vast aesthetic difference between having one fewer petal (hideous) and one extra petal (charming) in brassicas. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... #plantscienceresearch

This team and our unique dataset have been instrumental in shaping my thinking about paralogs, epistasis, and quantitative genetics. I hope our work inspires others to reconsider the role of genomes in producing the diverse phenotypes of the natural world! #plantscienceresearch

We saw some weird purple spotting on lambsquarters growing out in the field edge during our walk today. Anyone recognize the spotting? Other weeds around but no others were spotted. We brought a few back to track if it spreads or they recover.
