I ordered @ATinyGreenCell's chromoprotein palette to do some agar art + science outreach.
But when my lab saw the rainbow plates, we decided it would be fun to see if we could express the purple chromoprotein TsPurple in lettuce.
Long story short, it worked :D #LavenderLettuce

Can anybody help us in the @AlonsoStepanova Lab figure out what is going on with our plants? After the inflorescence elongates, the tip wilts (pic 1) and gets colonized by this fungus (pics 2 and 3). Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated! @NCState_PMB
