Fantastic post from Penn State Science about IJPS's inaugural Coulter Review. In the review, PSU faculty member Dr. Sarah Assmann examines the genetic makeup of a noncrop plant distantly related to broccoli and cabbage in order to work toward the solution of feeding a growing human population amid decreasing natural resources and increasing abiotic stresses.

The very first John M. Coulter Review is available online, ahead of print and freely accessible. Check it out! http://bit.ly/UMejnz
