My 1st first-author preprint is out on bioRxiv this morning! We use 3D reconstructions of sorghum to measure phyllotaxy (arrangement of leaves around the stem in horizontal space). 1/ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Look at this amazing group of people I am fortunate enough to get to work with each day!

Big Ten Impact Research at UNL. Featuring, in order of appearance Nikee Shrestha Vladimir Torres, PhD James Schnable Harshita Kyle Linders Jonathan Turkus Waqar Ali & Jensina Davis all of Nebraska Agronomy and Horticulture and UNL PSI.

Karla karla cuellar perez is an undergraduate researcher comparing eQTLs regulating the expression of orthologous genes in maize and sorghum. Really remarkable work.

The 4 PhDs I mentor presenting at #MGC2025. Waqar Ali Genes controlling yield components Harshita Diverse transcriptional responses to low nitrogen. Nikee Shrestha Plants prefer exons be divisible by 3. Jensina Davis Linking gene expression and phenotypic plasticity.

Of course not only PhD students Sofiya Arora a co mentored MS student who is understanding the downstream consequences of natural cis regulatory gene expression variation. And Caner Yavuz visiting scholar making better maize tissue culture, also with natural genetic variation.

The biggest impact I'll ever have as a professor is the people I help to train. Felt wonderful to see so many current trainees and lab alumni together in one place this past weekend.

Current students and the students of one of my former trainees (Ravi Mural) together at ASPB midwest. Just really proud of all of them.

Deniz (Deniz İştipliler) traveled >6,000 miles to deliver today's Nebraska Agronomy and Horticulture seminar on using scary water for agriculture efficiently. Starts by explaining the hazelnuts to make the nutella we're all enjoying likely grew in Turkey.

Early Eid celebrations in our lab with the sweetest surprise! Thank you James Schnable for getting so many sweets and the thoughtful wishes in Hindi! I absolutely love Jalebi and its been a while since I had some. Maybe not the healthiest breakfast, but definitely the happiest!

What a Heuermann Research Fellow who just submitted his first paper as a member of UNL PSI looks like. Congratulations, Zhongjie Ji!
