🍅Harvesting tomatoes before they ripen & storing them at certain temperatures can hurt quality, flavor & shelf life. New #UCDavis research examines changes at the molecular level to better understand postharvest effects & potentially prevent food waste.🍅 caes.ucdavis.edu/news/researche…

Check out how #UCDavis researchers are using fish in flooded rice fields to support wildlife, as well as potentially boost crops & reduce methane emissions. A step forward for sustainability and climate action! 🐟🦆🌾caes.ucdavis.edu/news/birds-and…

@emilyngo @politico The “completely unbothered sanitation workers” part is magic. Nice story, Emily

Have you ever been inside an Herbarium? UC Davis has a pretty cool one. Take a peek inside with me: caes.ucdavis.edu/news/botanists…

🚨Research alert 🚨 Alaska’s crystal clear rivers & streams are turning orange. The staining found at more than 75 sites could be the result of minerals exposed by thawing permafrost, research published in Nature Communications finds. caes.ucdavis.edu/news/alaskas-r…

Winemaking leftovers reduce dairy cattle methane emissions when added to feed - a favorite #UCDavis story of mine about two of California's top agriculture commodities 🍇🐄. caes.ucdavis.edu/news/grape-see…

🚨🐄 research alert 🐄🚨 Not all cattle are the same when it comes to grazing. Some wander, some stay close to water. Knowing that could lead to better animal health & environmental conditions.🐄 caes.ucdavis.edu/news/understan…

Agave alert! A team of researchers at the #UCDavis Agave Center are studying agave genetics, virus susceptibility & other topics as more farmers in the Golden State are turning to the crop as a potential drought-tolerant option of the future. caes.ucdavis.edu/news/investiga…

🚨Research alert🚨 Some invasive plants can turn into ecological time bombs by staying dormant for centuries before rapidly expanding & wreaking havoc. #UCDavis research published in @Nature Ecology & Evolution details this hidden threat. caes.ucdavis.edu/news/invasive-…

🌍 Thrilled to receive the 2023-24 Chancellor’s Award for International Engagement from @UCDavisGlobal Grateful for the recognition & the support from colleagues, students, & the community. Congrats to fellow awardees. @ucdavisCAES

X is mostly depressing nastiness these days, but this 🧵is amazing. Happy Saturday!

Deborah Golino, a renowned plant pathologist, avid gardener and retired director of Foundation Plant Services at UC Davis has died. She was a kind friend and mentor, approachable yet formidable, and known for her epic parties. She will be dearly missed. spr.ly/6019RqHuV

Just another day in the moo-fice #ucdavis

Google can provide many answers. #UCDavis is using it to track down invasive weeds. Meet Google Weed View – a high-tech way to identify roadside weeds using Google Street View for a fraction of the cost, developed by @MBMesgaran. #AI, #Johnsongrass spr.ly/6011RKEuL

Is trimming your cat’s nails a favorite pastime? We didn’t think so. Learn how #UCDavis researchers are working with cats @SacramentoSPCA to remove the stress–for pets and humans–around this routine health need. *No one was scratched during this research. spr.ly/6014RDeAn

Viruses in soil may not be as destructive to bacteria as once thought & could act like lawnmowers, culling older cells & giving space for new growth, according to new #UCDavis research from @jemersonmicro in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution. spr.ly/6013uKkrc

From the sky, in laboratories & underground, researchers from across #UCDavis are working to detect, manage & fight a parasitic weed threatening the state’s $1.5 billion processing tomato industry. We tell the story in words and videos. spr.ly/6013u1V0T
