You may recall that June's issue of Genome Biology was dedicated to the field of plant genomics (more info on the issue can be found in this blog post).

When putting together the issue, we recorded a podcast with some of the featured researchers in which we discussed their contributions.

We also spoke to co-Guest Editor Mario Caccamo (read his and Erich Grotewold's Editorial here) and, as a bonus, we solicited the thoughts of Dale Sanders on GM crops – a perennially hot button topic.

For the aurally challenged, Biome has posted a full text of the Q&A from which Sanders' podcast clips are excerpted.
