Study traces genetic roots of tomato flavor loss, identifies new pathway for improvement | CAES Field Report (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Anyone who has compared a supermarket tomato to a homegrown heirloom variety has likely noticed the difference. Modern tomatoes often sacrifice flavor for traits like yield, shelf life and disease resistance. But now, an international team of researchers, including University of Georgia plant geneticist Esther van der Knaap, has uncovered new clues about how that flavor was lost during tomato domestication and breeding, and identified genetic tools that could help breeders bring it back.

The farm that built a market: Growing Georgia’s signature sweet onion | CAES Field Report (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Bland Farms revolutionized how Vidalia onions are marketed. Four decades later, they’re pushing the industry forward again through university partnerships, eco-friendly farming, and high-tech field management. In 1982, Delbert Bland planted a small plot of sweet onions on his father Raymond’s 50-acre farm in southeast Georgia — land the family had worked since the late 1950s, starting with peanuts and corn before adding tomatoes. The following year, Bland Farms placed a small ad in Southern Livi
UGA scientists need your help to stop an invasive hornet | CAES Field Report (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When the non-native yellow-legged hornet (Vespa velutina) was first confirmed in Georgia in August 2023, a single sighting quickly evolved into a coordinated, statewide response. What began with a concerned beekeeper has become an ongoing effort involving researchers, state officials, and the public all working to track and contain a growing ecological threat. That effort is expanding, fueled not only by surveillance and public reporting but also by new research from the University of Georgia th
Gut feelings: How stress may reshape the microbiome and influence brain health | CAES Field Report (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For years, scientists have understood that the effects of brain disease and injuries can extend far beyond the skull, triggering inflammation, immune responses and lasting neurological effects. But emerging research suggests the relationship between the brain and the body may be even more intertwined than once thought, extending deep into the gut. New findings from University of Georgia researchers show that even subtle, everyday experiences, like feeling stressed during exams or losing sleep, m
