Thanks for voicing that, don’t keep quiet.

Trait genetic architecture and population structure determine model selection for genomic prediction in natural Arabidopsis thaliana populations Abstract. Genomic prediction applies to any agro- or ecologically relevant traits, with distinct ontologies and genetic architectures. Selecting the most a

While the per capita consumption of olive oil has remained steady (increasing with population), the consumption of kiwis or pistachios has seen its rise alongside population growth. Interestingly, increased fruit and vegetable consumption is often associated with economic improvement.

The genome of Citrus australasica reveals disease resistance and other species specific genes - BMC Plant Biology Background The finger lime (Citrus australasica), one of six Australian endemic citrus species shows a high natural phenotypic diversity and novel characteristics. The wide variation and unique…

Controlling the frequency dynamics of homing gene drives for intermediate outcomes Abstract. Gene drives have enormous potential for solving biological issues by forcing the spread of desired alleles through populations. However, to safeg

Gene drives can have non-trivial intermediate behaviours in a population. We better model it to get it right!

Was nice to collaborate on this one, to predict the evolution of plasticity under a combination of cyclical (e.g. seasonal) and stochastic (random) fluctuations!

Warm temperature perceived at the vegetative stage affects progeny seed germination in natural accessions of Arabidopsis thaliana Temperatures perceived early in the life cycle of mother plants can affect the germination of the offspring seeds.

Amazed by the work done on C. elegans or S. cerevisae at #TAGC24. Why don’t we hear more about these illuminating systems in #Australia ´s research? #ARC should stop deterring it’s scientists from studying model organisms.
