I’ve just had my say on our future banknotes. Have your say too!

Today at CNB we brought together leading researchers at the Plant Sensing and Adaptation to a Challenging World congress to share advances in plant signalling, stress responses and resilience through talks, posters and scientific discussion. Thanks to participants! @csic.es @sommalliance.bsky.social

🌱 RESEARCH 🌱 This study reveals that sugars are essential for cytokinin to promote bud growth in plants, showing how sugars and hormones work together to control shoot branching - Jiang et al. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/jxb/... #PlantScience 🧪 @mklnicolas.bsky.social @frannybarbs.bsky.social

🚨Job Alert!! Assistant professor vacancy ‘plant abiotic stress resilience’ in our group @uuplants.bsky.social Come for the science, stay for the amazing colleagues 😀More details here www.uu.nl/en/organisat... Please share!!

Our latest work on the Solanum pangenome made the cover @nature.com 🍅🍆🥔 Proud of this collective work with an amazing group of collaborators!

Mike Schatz@mikeschatz.bsky.social · last yr.

Very proud of our work with Zach Lippman, Jesse Gillis, Joyce Van Eck, @mattbnt.bsky.social, @katiejenike.bsky.social and many others! @jhu.edu @cshlnews.bsky.social www.nature.com/nature/volum...

How do potato cultivars cope with salt stress? With Rumyana Karlova (PPH-WUR) we are glad to share that our paper investigating potato plants' response to salt stress is out www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... ! with @pph-wur.bsky.social @christatesterink.bsky.social

Potato cultivars use distinct mechanisms for salt stress acclimation

Soil salinity induces osmotic stress and ion toxicity in plants, detrimentally affecting their growth. Potato (Solanum tuberosum) suffers yield reduct…

If you're planting daffodils, crocuses, and other spring-flowering bulbs and you don't get them all to the ideal depth, don't fret! Many flowering bulbs can *pull themselves* deeper with contractile roots! 📷 Rama Sisodia & Satish C. Bhatla; Mordecai J. Jaffe & A. Carl Leopold

We are looking for a motivated PhD candidate to work with us on the molecular mechanisms controlling axillary bud dormancy and plant shoot branching at the Centro Nacional de Biotecnología in Madrid. If you are interested, contact me or @pilarcubas.bsky.social

Amazing work by Yutao and Nora and many other colleagues showing the major importance of minor molecular changes in the cell wall in seedlings exposed to high salinity academic.oup.com/plcell/advan...

Arabinosylation of cell wall extensin is required for the directional response to salinity in roots

Salt induces ExAD-dependent arabinosylation of hydroxyproline residues in extensin to modify cell wall structure and the gravitropism response of roots.

Scientists from CNB in Madrid say yes! to #NGT #CRISPR !

Thank you, Marc for posting! I am really excited about these findings. Cell-to-cell diffusion via plasmodesmata is not only regulated by callose but also by regulating ER/PM membrane spacing. This is achieved by the concerted action of tethering proteins in the ER and a plasma membrane lipid, PI4P.
