🌱 Plant roots decide which way to grow much earlier than expected. #CIBSS researchers revealed how the SGR9 protein helps young lateral roots sense gravity & set their growth angle at a surprisingly early phase of development. 🔗 kurzlinks.de/yi3a #PlantScience #RootArchitecture
Excited to share our latest publication! 🎉 Here @sophiezoe.bsky.social reveals an early developmental time window determining initial growth direction of lateral roots. Wonderful collaboration with @wabniklab.bsky.social and @matesf.bsky.social lab www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... @cibss.bsky.social

Weniger Erdgas und CO2: Wissenschaftler forschen an Bakterien-Pflanzen-Symbiosen
Kunstdünger braucht viel Erdgas und schadet Klima und Gewässern. Forschende in Freiburg wollen, dass Nutzpflanzen sich mithilfe von Bakterien selbst mit Stickstoff versorgen.
