Tonight I’ll be presenting on the molecular mechanisms behind flowering through SutS! Come by BFL to join in-person, or watch online. If you’re interested in how plants respond to warming temperatures (or an earnest attempt to make genetics cool), this is the talk for you.
Science Under The Stars@sci_under_stars2 Oct 2024
🌿How do plants survive rising temperatures? While animals can travel, plants adapt by changing their gene expression! Join us on Oct. 10 at Brackenridge Field Lab as Maddie Brightbill dives into the fascinating topics of plant genetics & flowering 🌺 #ScienceUnderTheStars

Congratulations to my labmates on their latest publication!

Replying to @Dev_journal
Read the full Research Article, 'Warm temperature-triggered developmental reprogramming requires VIL1-mediated, genome-wide H3K27me3 accumulation in Arabidopsis' here: journals.biologists.com/dev/…
VIL1 accumulates at temperature-responsive loci in response to high ambient temperature.

ALT VIL1 accumulates at temperature-responsive loci in response to high ambient temperature.

A review on how temperature impacts regulation of flowering time that Dr. Sibum Sung and I recently published! link.springer.com/article/10…

Temperature-mediated regulation of flowering time in Arabidopsis thaliana

aBIOTECH - Throughout a plant’s life cycle, temperature plays a major role in development. Regulatory modules use temperature cues to control gene expression, facilitating physiological...

I love the posts from #BlackBotanistWeek #BlackRoots #BlackBotanicalLegacy! Hi folks, I'm Shawn (They/Them). Today my work focuses on trying to figure out some of the unseen diversity plants are hiding. I study metabolic trait evolution and phylogenomics.
