For an idea of how Sequenceserver is already being used...
Sequenceserver is helping researchers produce sweeter #sugarcane! Zhao et al., investigate the #genetic mechanisms behind sugar accumulation in sugarcane based on full-length transcriptomic analysis. An interesting application of Sequenceserver in #cropscience! #genomics

this #sugarcane cutting was literally lying on the ground, pinned under a bucket of soil, and it's still making roots. it does not care one bit.
the sugarcane says "the air is 100% humidity and i'm making a run for the soil that has got to be around here somewhere!"

💧 "Sometimes it looks like acid, slightly yellowish in colour. The government-owned hand pumps in our village have been marked red now because of the #water quality."
🌾 #India, the world’s second-largest #sugar producer, has started to turn its surplus into #bioethanol as it strives to lower energy costs and meet #climate pledges.
🧑🌾 However, intensive #sugarcane cultivation puts pressures on #farmers and the #environment.

when you find the #plants that want to grow in your climate, you'll know. here's a #sugarcane cutting that made new roots (the bright white roots) at a bunch of nodes after just a few days of sitting in water. only one end is in water, but all these nodes have grown roots because it's been so humid & rainy. the sugarcane is saying "who needs soil? i'm good here in the air..for now!" (i will plant it soon)
fun fact: #bamboo will behave & look the same!

This is insane.
With #Brexit, England's #SugarBeet farmers lost legal protections against cheap #SugarCane imports, and the Brexiteer government exacerbated the problem by agreeing to massive tariff-free quotas of cane.
Now said government os, contrary to European environmental norms, sanctioning the continued use of a bee-killing insecticide designed to target aphids that dine on beet leaves.
Lunacy.

However, an outbreak of the Panama disease as well as increased concern in Lao society about negative environmental and health effects from #pesticides led to a complete #cropbust and the lowland was turned into commercial #sugarcane plantations.
In less than two decades, these dynamic and drastic land use changes resulted in a complete change in the livelihood practices of many farmers in Sing district, #LuangNamtha province. What will come next?
Thanks to Julie Zähringer for this thread!
