I'm going to make an appearance (audible appearance that is) on my first radio show this weekend! I have been lucky enough to be selected for the #20phds20mins show on @einstein_agogo. I will be summarising my PhD on vulnerability in a plant's life cycle in just 1 minute!
Dr Shane Huntington OAM@DrShaneRRR

This Sunday on @3RRRFM @einstein_agogo I will again be interviewing a bucketload of PhD students as part of #20phds20mins (group 8, part 2). There were so many applications I had to split them into in-studio and online groups. 11am via 102.7FM or rrr.org.au

@shpenman @Bin_Ussein Exactly Sandra! In some species, seed germination onset, duration and total proportion responded differently to some heatwaves but not others and with no common pattern. It was really interesting. I thought there would be a negative effect of increased heatwave temps/frequency.

@Bin_Ussein We see similar patterns in many plants here in Australia too. The really neat thing about Philippa's @powerofplants3 master's work is that the effects changed when seeds were also exposed to different heatwave treatments. Fascinating!

Seeds were surprisingly resilient to heat treatment but differences in species life traits were responsible for variation in germination attributes, Philippa Alvarez explains at #ESAus20
