This virtual gathering will hold space for students to share their thoughts and feelings about trauma and violence lived at the intersections of racism, sexism, heterocentrism, and other oppressions. Please join via Zoom: https://tennessee.zoom.us/j/91984361088
Join the Office of the Dean of Students for our continued series exploring challenging and timely campus and community topics.
This event features faculty, staff, and students engaging in conversations regarding allyship and antiracism. Collaborating partners include the College of Social Work, Office of Multicultural Student Life, and representatives from the Student Government Association.
Abstract: Genome wide association studies, GWAS, are performed to determine potential associations between phenotypic (traits observed) data and genotypic (genome) data. Ipomoea batatas, sweetpotato, is a vital crop for combating both visible and invisible hunger, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. Understanding the genetic diversity of the sweetpotato germplasm and the genetic architecture underlying agronomic traits is crucial to maintenance and utility of the genetic resources for the crop’s improvement. We will perform a GWAS study to determine potential genes and genomic features associated with traits of interest including disease and pest resistance traits, culinary traits, phytonutritional traits, and morphological traits. We intend to determine potential genes of interests and functional markers for breeding programs.
