New preprint from the lab. Gousiekte is a disease of cattle and sheep in southern Africa caused by pavettamine, a toxin found in some plants grazed by the animals. We found that the toxin is actually made by obligate bacterial endophytes!

Does genetic diversity help species keep up with, or tolerate, climate change? 🌡️🌍 Our new BioShifts paper shows that high genetic diversity 🧬: 1) Reduces range contractions under fast warming 2) Accelerates range expansion under moderate warming onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Genetic Diversity Impacts Climate‐Induced Species Range Shifts

Genetic diversity may buffer species against climate-driven range contractions and facilitate expansions, but its role at a global scale remains unclear. Using 4673 range shift estimates for 1888 spe....

In the frame of the French ANR funded project HOMONIME project (anr.fr/Projet-ANR-2...), we will open 3 PhD positions to work on nickel homeostasis in plants using genomic, proteomic, metabolomic and spectrometric approches in Toulouse, Grenoble and Pau. Contact me for further informations

Exploration des mécanismes de l'homéostasie du nickel chez les plantes à l'aide d'une espèce hyperaccumulatrice

Le nickel est un métal essentiel pour les plantes. Il est le cofacteur indispensable à uréase, qui dégrade l’urée pour recycler l’azote. Cependant, le nickel est toxique quand il est présent en excès,...
