🚨 We've got a new preprint out 🚨 - We developed a series of logical frameworks for analyzing how transposable element content contributes to structural variation (SV) within maize 🌽🧬🌽. How'd we do this what did we find?? - 1/11

After ~20 years at the UMN today was my last day . I have been so lucky to work with wonderful people in my group and to have a fantastic set of collaborators. A huge thank you to all of my colleagues, collaborators and friends. Excited for a new journey @Bayer4Crops

Why do the same gene in different varieties respond differentially under the environmental stimuli? We seek to answer the question using both population transcriptomics and chromatin signatures.

Excited to share @noshjac's last thesis chapter research. Monitoring accessible chromatin and DNA methylation in four maize genomes. Reveals that a large amount of variable methylation is due to shifting boundaries at the edge of methylated domains

This was a fun project led by @orionzhou which taught me that many of my conceptions about cis-regulatory elements are flawed. Peng is a fantastic science, he'll be sorely missed at MN as he begins a new position.

While 2020 has certainly had some glaring deficiencies there is still much to be thankful for. Thank you to all my colleagues and friends for the kind words the last couple days 1/n

This is a nice study led by @shanwai1234 that shows the variability of TE responses to abiotic stresses in different maize inbreds. Both genetics and epigenetics are important factors. Couldn't have happened without @sna8 @pete_crisp @noshjac @taraenders

Really nice work led by @noshjac that finds evidence for a subset of TEs that influence regulation of nearby genes. Made possible by great collaborations with @Schmitz_Lab @HirschCandice and many others!

Very nice work on imprinting by @sna8 When you develop new approaches that shine light in the corners you were ignoring sometimes you find some really cool things.
