New article from @science.org gives a bit of a peek behind the curtain. It seems NSF internally has no idea what is happening, how to implement, or what the consequences of non-compliance will be.

Yay! Paper accepted!

I still love this figure. Submitting revisions this week. SNPs in transcription factor binding sites (green) explain the majority of additive genetic variation for >70% of ~150 phenotypes (rows) in maize. See Alt for detailed figure legend. See www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... for more!
Estimated additive genetic variance organized by 143 traits. Colored ridges show the estimated additive genetic variance across 100 permutations for either MOA bQTL (green), bgSNPs (orange), and remaining genome SNPs (purple). Black symbols represent the mean estimated value across permutations. Traits arranged by bQTL mean variance estimates and color coded according to general trait groupings: vitamin E metabolites = navy blue, metabolites = purple, stalk strength = light blue, flowering time = gold, plant architecture = red, disease = green, tassel architecture = pink, ear architecture = orange, misc. = grey.
