1/ 🚨 My first PhD preprint is out on bioRxiv! We show how tiny mutations—point mutations and kb-level indels—can shape the massive structure of Arabidopsis centromeres. 📄 Read it here: doi.org/10.1101/2025.06.02.6… 🧵 A short thread 👇

🍟 We demonstrate this by generating megabase-scale pseudo-genome assemblies for modern cultivars using only cost-effective short reads - including for 'Russet Burbank', THE famous French Fries potato! 6/7

Very excited to share the first preprint from my work in @LabSchneeberger! We developed single nucleus RNA-sequencing of recombinant haploid gametes as a method for performing rapid expression quantitative trait locus (aka eQTL) analysis. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… A 🧵 1/N

🧬Excited to share our latest pre-print! We've developed a rapid eQTL analysis approach using single-cell/nucleus RNA sequencing of Arabidopsis pollen nuclei. This method uncovers cis- & trans-eQTLs, including a master regulator of sperm cell development! 🌱📊 #PlantScience #eQTL

🔍By capturing mature sperm nuclei, we fine-mapped trans-eQTL hotspots and detected meiotic recombination events. Our study with 5 A. thaliana F1 hybrids reveals that most eQTLs are cell-type specific. Notably, PSV1 regulates sperm nuclei-specific genes 🌿🔬#Genomics #Arabidopsis

🧵🌳 Our new manuscript is out! We explored how somatic mutations in trees spread and propagate through different layers of the plant, improving our understanding of the genetic underpinnings of plant growth and diversity. #PlantScience #Genomics doi.org/10.1186/s13059-024-0…

The vast majority of somatic mutations in plants are layer-specific

🧬 The high load of layer-specific mutations often goes unnoticed in bulk analyses. This study provides a holistic view of how these mutations accumulate and propagate, offering new insights into plant genomic architecture. #GeneticResearch #PlantBiology
