CYSTEINE-RICH RLK2 regulates development via callose synthase-dependent symplastic transport in Arabidopsis
Abstract. CYSTEINE-RICH RECEPTOR-LIKE PROTEIN KINASEs (CRKs) play an important role in plant development and stress responses. One of the best described me

Our paper is out !!! NADPH oxidases and aquaporins within membrane nanodomains form a functional unit for ROS signaling. Great work by arthur-poitout.bsky.social and amazing collaborator jbfiche.bsky.social, Jose Ugalde, A Meyer yvonjaillais.bsky.social! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2529740123
I am incredibly excited and grateful to have received an ERC Advanced Grant for my project, WOODIER: What Makes Trees Woody! 🌳 This award feels like the culmination of many years of work carried out in our research group, and the biggest thanks go to my lab members. bsky.app/profile/erc.... 1/x
European Research Council (ERC)@erc.europa.eu · last mo.The results of the Advanced Grants 2025 are here! Out of 3,329 applicants, 319 leading researchers have been awarded an ERC Advanced Grant. Congratulations to all! 🎉 Curious to know more ? 👉 buff.ly/uiU9x5K #ERCAdG #FrontierResearch
🌱 A big step for plant breeding in Europe The EU has approved the #NGT Regulation — creating “clear conditions for applying modern breeding approaches”, says our CEO Felix Büchting. A step towards more resource‑efficient, sustainable agriculture 🌎 Our Press release: www.kws.com/corp/en/medi...
Disaster struck last night. My trusty Orval glass gave up... Luckily after completing one last service. RIP 🙏
Good news to European innovation! EU Parliament’s ENVI Committee backs new #NGTs rules ahead of plenary vote tomorrow, 17 June. A clearer framework can support resilient crops, fewer inputs and more sustainable farming🌱

#cuticle cell wall, ROS, morphogenesis, marchantia
Gitta Coaker@gittacoaker.bsky.social · 2mo agoMarchantia has two RBOHs. Double mutant = disorganized cell mass. Conditional mutant analyses show they are required to sustain morphogenesis via cuticle-cell-wall integrity. Clever study. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

For liverwort mavens, I've needed to shift our Marchantia resources to a new website (I've reached retirement from academia in Cambridge) - and the plant synthetic biology stuff has moved to https://www.haseloff-lab.info (Now have more time for DIY builds! Updates to come)

#water status sensing via molecular condensation! 😎👌 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Cellular water-potential sensing through biomolecular condensation - Nature
Plants sense water deficiency through SAM8 protein condensation, which responds to reduced hydration and triggers stress adaptation by altering RNA export and gene translation.

Here it finally is: our protocol for boosting maize transformation. We’ve already shared it at several conferences, and it was overdue to give it its final shape and submit it. We hope it will be useful for the community! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
