Goodbye MPMI Congress, it was really fascinating to visit a scientific conference for the first time. I have learned a lot!

Excited to share my first first-author paper, now available as a preprint bioRxiv. I am grateful for my supervisor @alexanderforderer.bsky.social and the @mpi-mp-potsdam.bsky.social for this opportunity. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Diversification of the "EDVID" packing motif underpins structural and functional variation in plant NLR coiled-coil domains

· Nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptors (NLRs) are critical in plant immunity and display remarkable allelic diversity. Coiled-coiled NLRs (CC-NLRs) are the most widespread group of these r...
