It has been a great #PSBS24. I planned to post a bit during the Symposium - but it's been too interesting and busy to spend time on the phone! Fantastic talks from many #PlantScience -related fields 👍👌 Thanks to all attendees and supporters; @hhu.bsky.social, @ceplas.bsky.social, and the RSF. 🙏

Did plants repurpose parts of the nuclear pore as size exclusion barriers at #Plasmodesmata? Read more in our @sympore.bsky.social preprint: #PlantScience #PlantCellBio 🧪🥦

I have updated the #PlantScience #StarterPack. You can now include 150 accounts, instead of the initial 50. I have tried to focus on active accounts. go.bsky.app/8Zfmwf7

The 2nd Decennial #PlantScience & Beyond Symposium will take place in at the @hhu.bsky.social Haus der Universität, this coming Monday (30th Sep) and Tuesday (1st Oct). Amazing line-up of speakers from #Academia #SciPub #SciComm #AppliedScience #BioTech - but always plant-related. 👍

This year's Strasburger Award from the German Society for #PlantSciences (DBG) for the best publication goes to @elizaloopi.bsky.social from @hhu.bsky.social, who gave a nice talk on her award-winning #PlantImmunity work published in Cell, Host & Microbe: www.cell.com/cell-host-mi... #BT2024DBG

Day 2 of Postdoc Appreciation Week with CEPLAS postdoc Ahan Dalal, AvH fellow at HHU @hhu.bsky.social! Thanks for your contribution Ahan!

The Line-up for the 2nd #PlantScience & Beyond Symposium is now complete. On September 30th and October 1st we'll have an amazing group of plant scientists and academics from adjacent fields in Düsseldorf at the Haus der Universität @hhu.bsky.social. #PSBS24

The latest pre-print from the lab is out! This was an epic effort over many years to make, verify, and experiment with lines in which we can close plasmodesmata outside of a physiological context. Turns out, plasmodesmal closure triggers a range of stress responses! #PlantScience #Plasmodesmata

The first gene-edited #rice 🌾 plants are currently being planted in Italy. These plants are edited to be more resistant against the #RiceBlast fungus #Pyricularia oryzae. Fantastic effort by @vittoriab.bsky.social, Fabio Fornara and their colleagues! More 👉 www.nature.com/articles/d43...

Plasmodesmata? Cool fungal effectors being hypermobile and influencing cell-to-cell mobility? All the cool stuff and more in this paper 😎 #PlantScience #plantimmunity

Christine Faulkner@pdchristine.bsky.social · 3y ago

Count your cells in mobility assays! You can get a lot of information from this data.
