Blue light decreases ER Ca²⁺ in stomatal guard cells, with refilling in the dark. Our new @newphyt.bsky.social study shows how ER Ca²⁺ shapes cytosolic Ca²⁺ dynamics doi.org/10.1111/nph....

The Cell Wall as a Biophysical Gatekeeper of Iron Homeostasis in Plant Roots Yesterday, Chenlu Liu (from the @elkebarbez.bsky.social group) revealed how dynamic cell wall charge regulates iron uptake in plant roots, acting as a reversible ion filter that shapes nutrient balance. #PlantScience

Our article "Guns in Rosettes: The Arabidopsis chemical weapons arsenal" is finally published @plantphys.bsky.social! You can download the #OpenAccess PDF here: doi.org/10.1093/plph... But real connoisseurs of #AntimicrobialCompounds will want to get the vinyl boxset: #PlantScience #PlantImmunity

‘It was an honor to meet Minister Olschowski and share how the vision of CIBSS to decode decision-making in living systems holds great promise for sustainable agriculture and human health.’ - Prof. Jürgen Kleine-Vehn, who together with Prof. Sonja Albers presented our Cluster’s research. 1/5

Gestern tauschte sich Ministerin Petra Olschowski mit der Uni-Leitung zur strategischen Weiterentwicklung der #unifreiburg aus – und würdigte sie als Leuchtturm der baden-württembergischen #Wissenschaftslandschaft. @mwk-bw.bsky.social ufr.link/besuch-petra-olschowski

Thrilled to share our latest story on the ERAD machinery and how it controls the conditional turnover of PIN-LIKES for acclimative growth www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Dr. Jessica Werthmann und Dr. Fritz Renner (Institut für #Psychologie) erhalten einen von zehn Ig-Nobelpreisen. Ausgezeichnet werden sie für ihre Studie „Dutch Courage“, in der sie untersuchen, ob eine geringe Menge Alkohol das Sprechen in einer Fremdsprache verbessern kann. ufr.link/ig-nobelpreis

Starting our first @dompsfr.bsky.social #plantscience seminar series of the academic year with a thank you by @elkebarbez.bsky.social for postdoc appreciation day, chocolates and a talk by @beritebert.bsky.social on cell walls and glycans!

The discovery of genes underlying interesting traits for #PlantBreeding is one of the most important & difficult tasks here @kwsgroup.bsky.social. We are looking for a Quantitative Geneticist to help us with this! #PlantScience #PlantBreeding #PlantGenetics #PlantScienceJobs #PlantSciJobs

Das Konsortium #DataPLANT @nfdi4plants.bsky.social unter Leitung der #Unifreiburg entwickelt seit 2020 Infrastruktur für die riesigen Datenmengen, mit denen moderne #Pflanzenforschung arbeitet. Nun hat die @dfg.de die Förderung bis 2028 verlängert. ➡️ ufr.link/dataplant-foerderung @fz-juelich.de

It was fun to have Katharina, Grace, and Jonathan around in the @elkebarbez.bsky.social and @kleinevehnlab.bsky.social labs! 🌱 It was great to discuss and explore the world of plant signalling together! #Jugendforscht #PlantScience #CIBSS

🎉 Good news! The paper ‘Hormonal regulation of root growth under moderately elevated temperatures’ in @annbot.bsky.social by Tilman Jacob and co-authors is now #free for a limited time 🧵(1/7) 👉 doi.org/ps8z @unihalle.bsky.social @snp2prot.bsky.social #AoBpapers #PlantScience #Roots #Botany
