It was fantastic to see how @LettuceKnow members and students work together on large-scale RNAseq data to learn about lettuce immunity. Thanks to @UniUtrecht for the @github infrastructure that facilitates our team research and brings plant biology education to a new level.

Research suggests that fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lactucae race 4 causes vascular necrosis and wilting of lettuce. 🥗 This @BSPPjournals article shows that 91% of the isolates belonged to race 4, while only 6% of the isolates belonged to race 1. ➡️ ow.ly/Zrjs50LRoFZ @BS_PP
