The fantastic work of @kampova.bsky.social is finally out in PNAS: weather sensing and programmed cell death in anther dehiscence and opening. Cool science and awesome microscopy! @svosolsobe.bsky.social @handle.invalid @moritznowack.bsky.social

Interested in target capture sequencing? @madiraibullock.bsky.social and I are happy to announce a new service at TTU. Send us DNA, get reads enriched for your probes. Angiosperms353, GoFLAG, Compositae1061 & more! Funds go to grad student stipends and tuition! mossmatters.com/blog/TargetC...
Flyer for Target Capture DNA Sequencing at Texas Tech by the TTU Center for Biotechnology and Genomics. We provide targeted DNA sequencing for $30/sample for Angiosperms353, GoFLAG408, and other probe sets. Funds from our service go to fund a graduate student who is running the samples. We can use as little as 100 ng of DNA in 30 uL and provide at least 1 million reads per sample from a NovaSeq6000 SP 2x250 Illumina sequencing.

For more information and the full text of this flyer, visit mossmatters.com/blog/TargetCaptureService.html

From a lunar eclipse years ago: We sat in a dark clearing waiting for a total eclipse of the moon. My daughter, then 3, whispered to me "Daddy, where is the toad?" "What toad?" "The toad that the 'clipse is of." @bcdreyer.bsky.social I'm sure you appreciate this syntax. (Photo: 2017 'clipse)
