Citrus Canker disease control is vital for #texas #citrus industry. If you have or know of any citrus trees showing the symptoms below, please report to @TexasDeptofAg or @USDA_APHIS to coordinate necessary actions and prevent its spread.
CBTS is seeking upperclassmen interested in conducting cybersecurity or biothreat defense research for the Summer Research Institute (SRI). #DHS_COE_Research @dhsscitech Applications are live on our website below and are due March 8, 2024! cbts.tamu.edu/cbts-summer-re…
It’s been freezing cold out here in #SouthTexas, but our industry friends @LittleBearTX have been busy harvesting, processing and packing the seasons fresh produce, and moving it to our markets. #farmtotable #texasagriculture #freshproduce
It’s amazing how #Texas #citrus recovered from the devastating freeze just three years ago! Here’s to many more productive harvest seasons for all our #citrus growers! Happy holidays from #riograndevalley🎉
Good visit and discussions among @CBTS_TAMU @dhsscitech @CBP and @txresearch personnel and students on significant border bio threats and ways to address them.
Excellent collaboration with @CBTS_TAMU @dhsscitech in providing UG students summer research experiences in @txresearch labs. Students are learning about important crop pests, diseases, solutions as well as opportunities in ag. careers.
Excited to have this paper published! Here we looked at single-cell responses to virulent Pseudomonas within a leaf, followed by spatial investigation. Collab with @colepbio @LolleSigne @KvitkoPhD and heavy lifting by Jie Zhu. cell.com/cell-reports/f…
Preprint has been out, but glad to have this paper published. Here we investigated immune responses across 86 citrus and citrus relatives (Rutaceae). 🧵

Researchers have found a way to endow plants with an antibody-based defense for a specific threat, potentially speeding the creation of crops resistant to any kind of emerging virus, bacterium, or fungus. scim.ag/1Kr
Texas citrus field trials of @txresearch led @USDA_NIFA CAP project evaluating potential new HLB (citrus greening) therapies. Harvest days are rough, but memorable when you have great collaborators like @VeroAncona, David Laughlin, Freddy Ibanez and team members who helped out!
Good discussions and program demonstrations @AgriLife Weslaco center with local producers and #AgriLifeResearch director @GCliffLamb

The @AgriLife family is heartbroken by the tragedy that happened in Uvalde, Texas. Our hearts go out to those impacted and we stand behind our employees at the Texas A&M AgriLife Research and Extension Center at Uvalde as well as the surrounding county offices. #UvaldeStrong
New Article: "Foliar application of clay-delivered RNA interference for whitefly control" rdcu.be/cNGKc The sprayed dsRNA, carried on clay particles or BioClay, makes its way to the vasculature of plants and is taken up by whiteflies during feeding.
Scientists successfully grow plants in soil from the moon. Always nice when plant biologists who cut their teeth working on hypoxia take their work to the moon. So to speak @ISPA_Plants npr.org/2022/05/14/109…
