Very happy with the visit of Dana MacGregor @plantenv from Rothamsted Research to the Weed Sci and Center of Biotech of UFRGS/Brazil. Two seminars and several meetings with students and profs.

De manera virtual💻, se realizó el seminario 'Manejo de la tecnología de resistencia a Imidazolinonas en arroz: Lecciones aprendidas en #Brasil', que tuvo como ponente al doctor Aldo Merotto y contó con 61 participantes de 🇦🇷🇧🇴🇧🇷🇨🇱🇨🇴🇪🇨🇺🇸🇬🇾🇭🇳🇲🇽🇵🇦🇵🇾🇵🇪🇳🇮🇺🇾🇻🇪 y de Alianza de Bioversity International y el CIAT

Check out the series of seminars that our group has organized!! (some in Spanish) Next week we'll have Nuria Pedrol from Universidade de Vigo talking about allelopathy and Aldo Merotto about herbicide resistance in South America. agrotecnio.org/2023/11/08/a-s… Agrotecnio Research Centre SEMh Sociedad Española de Malherbología EWRS European Weed Research Society

A productive week was spent visiting Univ of Lleida an CITA-Aragon with talks to grad students and to #PalmerNet. Moltes Gràcies to Joel Torra for organizing everything and also to Jordi Recasens and José Maria Montull-IPMwise for the discussions.

Congratulations to our UFRGS MSc student Eduardo Rudell visiting @GenomEric at MSU for the 1st place on Master SST on WSSA WSSA in Santo Antônio, TX. Belo trabalho!!

Excited to share the paper “Experimental methods for phenotypic and molecular analyses of seed shattering in cultivated and weedy rice”. A collaboration between Merotto and Caicedo labs that aimed to provide valuable hints regarding rice seed shattering dx.doi.org/10.51694/AdvWe…

Wonderful time at the Rothamsted Research PhD Symposium and pleased to be awarded with the “Best Poster Presentation” prize! Special thanks to @plantenv Aldo Merotto for the guidance and Donna Fellowes for organising the event.

Out now in Genome Biology, a look at current priorities and resources for weed genomics, including the list of available weed genomes: rdcu.be/dJa5D Many, many thanks to everyone involved through Weed_Genomics and to NIFA and Foundation for Food & Agriculture Research (FFAR) for conference funding!
