🥔🧬In potato roots, the exodermis forms a continuous suberin layer near the tip—earlier than the endodermis. Reducing suberin altered mineral levels & stunted growth This outer barrier helps control ion balance in a major food crop #plantscience @jxbotany.bsky.social academic.oup.com/jxb/article-...

Exodermal suberin contributes to ion homeostasis and growth in potato

In potato roots, the endodermis and exodermis define anatomical compartments for mineral nutrients. Exodermal suberin accumulates early, and its reduction

We are on the verge of a climatic upheaval greater than any of us can imagine. Global leaders and media aren't paying attention. They are focused on a series of self-inflicted crises that have left us dangerously vulnerable and totally unprepared. My latest. charlieangus.substack.com/p/what-keeps...

Time for another preprint from the lab: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... Led by @yuanyuanzhang.bsky.social and @defengshen.bsky.social. We found some surprising secrets that connect and uncouple root barrier formation with systemic nitrogen signaling in shoots. see the thread below for more details

A tunable receptor separates root barrier formation from nutrient signaling through ligand-perception states

In roots, the endodermis controls nutrient entry by forming a barrier known as the Casparian strip. Yet how barrier-associated processes interface with systemic signaling remains unclear. Here, we sho...

Now, you can find our single-cell transcriptomic dataset of the developing grass leaf in The Plant Cell (academic.oup.com/plcell/artic...). You can also screen for the expression of your genes of interest (shiny.ips.unibe.ch). Congrats to all authors, especially the brilliant @lbmountain.bsky.social

🌾 Grass leaves are the photosynthetic powerhouses of human civilisation. @lbmountain.bsky.social's transcriptomic atlas of nearly 70,000 cells from shoot apex to mature leaf follows the genetic programs that form a grass leaf 🧬 paper doi.org/10.1093/plce... expression browser shiny.ips.unibe.ch

🍅🧬Tomato gene SlABCG45 transports strigolactones that trigger parasitic weed germination. Knockout reduces exudation and boosts yield by 30 percent in infested fields. No yield penalty in clean fields. A CRISPR target for broomrape resistance @theinnovation.bsky.social www.cell.com/the-innovati...

Manipulation of a strigolactone transporter in tomato confers resistance to the parasitic weed broomrape

Parasitic weeds of the Orobanchaceae family cause substantial economic losses and pose significant threats to global agriculture. However, management of such parasitism is challenging, and very few re...
