Check out this amazing thread by @KatieA_Long on our latest work using spatial transcriptomics in wheat alongside fabulous colleagues @EarlhamInst @AshleighSLister @whatchamacaulay.
1/9 I am excited to share our pre-print on spatial transcriptomics in wheat spikes in collaboration with @AshleighSLister. Using MERFISH, we resolved the expression of 200 genes to cellular resolution. Check out the pre-print 👉tinyurl.com/c7t3kncf

Great work by @simmojsimmo @NikolaiAdamski @AndyChen_Wheat & Pam to sow our first transgene-free genome edited wheat field trial. We will test cis-regulatory edits on yield components. Science-based regulation to move research into field! @ERC_Research @BBSRC #GiveGenesAChance

It turns out that FANCM promotes class I crossovers and suppresses class II crossovers in wheat. See our latest work nature.com/articles/s41467-0… @uniofleicester @hendersi @CristobalUauy

Congratulations to @NikolaiAdamski and @simmojsimmo, our GENius of April. For 9 years research resulting in the recent Plant Cell publication of their cloning and characterisation of the Triticum polonicum P1 and for selflessly helping others. @larsostergaard @JohnInnesCentre

Delighted to share our pre-print describing trends from 15 years of wheat breeding in the UK. Thanks to the @AHDB_Cereals for making the trial data available. Great working on this with @CristobalUauy @simmojsimmo @wingenl and Keith Gardner @niabgroup biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Huge shout out to @NikolaiAdamski and @simmojsimmo who masterminded this project and have been steadily working on the genetics and all other aspects over the past 7 years. Incredible work by the team. Really proud. n=11

This is Triticum polonicum, a tetraploid wheat subspecies first described by Linnaeus in 1753 and which was instrumental in the study of quantitative variation by early geneticists such as Biffen. We recently cloned P1, the gene responsible for its striking glume morphology. 1/n

Central Hub Trainer of the Month: EVERYONE for bringing the fun to training tonight.
Super work rate but with a balance of fun and laughter 🌟❤️🖤

What mutations does wheat hide?? Working with Science Journal for Teens we developed an article about or work with wheat mutants. Check it out for free online. @UCSmallGrains @kseniakrasileva @JohnInnesCentre @EarlhamInst @Rothamsted sciencejournalforkids.org/2/…

Thanks to @CristobalUauy I find myself shouting out loud when someone talks about gene editing and then says gm. They're different! Well.. that's what I learnt.... watch youtu.be/mp0QJDivWgA and you'll get it!

Really exciting work from @PhilippaBorrill using #gene #networks to identify transcription factors regulating #senescence in #wheat! Check it out on @biorxivpreprint
