“RNA as the key: unlocking how plants respond to environmental stress” — Breaking Ground with Andrew Nelson
Wednesday, September 29, 2021 12pm to 1pm
About this Event
Most plants stay in place once they’ve put down roots, which makes them susceptible to all types of environmental stresses: drought, flooding, pests, pathogens, too much food, too little food, and many others. Boyce Thompson Institute’s Andrew Nelson studies plants’ RNA to see how they respond to different kinds of environmental stress, with the ultimate goal of improving crops during this era of climate change. Tune in to this Breaking Ground to learn about his projects with sorghum, cotton, guayule, and more!
