@alice I've been on Mastodon since 2016. I have this "professional" account and my "less professional" account is at @[email protected]
I finished my Masters in Hort & Agronomy with a focus on #PlantBreeding last year. I'm looking for a PhD now.
I post anti-ableist work on all accounts, but especially on @ucaccessnow , which is a legacy account for a coalition that unfortunately has disbanded, but did pioneering institution-wide coalition work on uprooting ableism in the University of Calfiornia system.

I just finished a week (3 hr/day) of online webinars on an EU project on participatory fruit breeding for organic growers. It's been a loooooong time since I've been able to be at a plant science meeting that excited me as much. Most of the presentations kept me very engaged in the subject matter. And they were on very timely subjects, not just what's "timely" for people jockeying for more publications in "high impact journals" (although some presenters had that too). #PlantBreeding 🎉

Decades of progress: Breeding modified soybean root systems
"Soybean yields have increased over the last century, but little was known about how root systems changed during this period. We evaluated 24 soybean cultivars released between 1930 and 2005 in field experiments at two locations over 2 years, measuring root architecture, nodulation, and seed yield."

🌱 Computomics raises EUR 6.3 million to scale climate-smart plant breeding
We're excited to announce a Series B financing round led by Convent Capital Agri Food Fund, with continued backing from High-Tech Gründerfonds, MBG Baden-Württemberg, and Amathaon Capital.
As extreme heat and drought reshape harvests across Europe, breeders need faster answers than trial data alone can give. Our ×SeedScore® platform uses machine learning to predict how genotypes will perform under real-world climate stress. This helps breeders identify resilient, stable varieties years earlier.
This investment will accelerate commercial delivery of our climate-smart breeding platform to more breeding programs worldwide.
Read more: https://www.computomics.com/news-reader/eur-6.3-million-raised.html
Thank you to our investors and team for backing this next chapter! 🚀
This operation benefits from support from the European Union under the InvestEU Fund.

The theme of the UC Davis Plant Breeding Retreat (an event that was made inaccessible to me many of the years I was there, incidentally) is Intellectual Property.
While being able to protect one's work (until the plant patent runs out) is important in the kind of world we're living in at the moment, the fact that this is the theme of a gathering of students, faculty and guests in plant breeding rather than any number of urgent topics right now disturbs me. #PlantBreeding #UCAccessNow

1/🧵I'm a bit over the endless review articles and their fancy diagrams telling us that combining #genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, environmental data and AI will revolutionise plant breeding.
No shit Sherlock.
Of course integrating all those data streams would generate valuable insights. That was never the challenging part. The real limitation is economics 💸 Many breeding programs already struggle to justify the cost of genomics alone.
