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/...

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!

Great article in Cell: Time-resolved reprogramming of single somatic cells into totipotent states during plant regeneration It's about #Arabidopsis and #auxin. www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

This is epic! @officialatcc.bsky.social announced the winners of the 2025 Photo contest! They look amazing! Check the Alt text and follow the link for tons more. www.atcc.org/about-us/upc... I love this! Please reshare! #microscopy #biology #research #science #cellbiology #microbiology #biotech 🧪🧬

Nice!! Congrats!

What a cool story presented by @elkebarbez.bsky.social from @uni-freiburg.de at @umeaplantsciencecentre.se !!

🚨Job Alert!! Assistant professor vacancy ‘plant abiotic stress resilience’ in our group @uuplants.bsky.social Come for the science, stay for the amazing colleagues 😀More details here www.uu.nl/en/organisat... Please share!!

STARMORPH kick off went smoothly! Nice group of young scientists to work together with! Fantastic couple of days! @xanderjones.bsky.social @kleinevehnlab.bsky.social @nowako76.bsky.social @srobertgroup.bsky.social @erc.europa.eu @umeaplantsciencecentre.se

Fun on the way!

Thrilled to share our latest work: how plants control growth through activation of a surface-specific growth programme. Thanks @zoenv.bsky.social, @nathan-german.bsky.social and the other coauthors for all the hard work! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Nice group effort and determination! Thanks to all involved!

Such a fun and inspiring meeting! Big thanks to the organiser team!!

STARMORPH is represented at the FASEB #PDevSRC meeting by @srobertgroup.bsky.social who has presented data from her group on apical hook development and cuticle.

Great morning session with talks on stomata @stanfordstomata.bsky.social xylem development @bertderybel.bsky.social regeneration @bas-bargmann.bsky.social and root cel elongation from Flor Ercoli #PDevSRC 🌱 🌿

Indeed very nice story and discussion with @zoenv.bsky.social from @ckirchhelle.bsky.social group. RAB-A5C is fascinating in so many ways. #PDevSRC

🌱✂️ How do plant cells decide where to divide? Our work shows that actin can override the geometric rules—guiding cells to divide in alternative orientations. #PlantScience #CellBiology #Arabidopsis @camilagoldy.bsky.social @rdplab.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Job alert 📣 Our faculty looks for a Junior Professor W1 with tt to W2 in Membrane Biology! We are looking for #ECRs working on membrane biogenesis,contact sites,composition & other aspects of membranes in 🌱 and other organisms! DM me if you need more details! jobs.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/jobposting/f...

We have two open Post-Doc positions in my group at the interface with: 1- @ataly.bsky.social for molecular dynamics 2- Bruno Guillotin from protein mobility Apply by sending CV, two ref letters and a short motivation letter to me : [email protected]. Deadline 15 sept.

New preprint from the lab. We mapped the dynamics of phospholipids during lateral root formation and show that PI(4,5)P₂ plays a key role: targeted reduction in pericycle promotes LR development. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

We are excited to announce Federica Brandizzi as the next director of the MSU-DOE Plant Research Laboratory! Brandizzi's lab has contributed many important pieces to the canon of plant research in organelle biology, biofuel research and space biology. natsci.msu.edu/news/2025/20...

We're hiring! Need a microscopy wizard to help build the world’s first synthetic plant chromosome! Bring your lights, lasers, & lens-craft to characterise new artificial chromosomes. Join our ARIA-funded project at UWA in Perth & ‪@plants4space.bsky.social‬. Apply: bit.ly/3GKSRSA

The maintenance of plant cell wall integrity involves complex molecular interactions. In this review, preetmanchanda.bsky.social summarizes the pivotal roles of RALF, LRX, and FERONIA as well as their interactions in different cell and tissue systems. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

One of the key aspects influencing morphogenesis is mechanics. We mapped the mechanical properties of living roots at the tissue and cellular levels using Brillouin microscopy and molecular rotors. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

@stephanevrg.bsky.social lab is changing the way we question cell wall developmental role! Thanks Léa for this great pipeline! In use for our @kawresearch.bsky.social project!

Happy to see Kevin Robe’s work on ZIP transporters published. We found evidences that ZIP2 and ZIP8 are involved in Cu and Fe acquisition respectively and confirmed the role of ZIP3 and ZIP5 in Zn acquisition. journals.plos.org/plosgenetics...

“she changed the face of modern plant biology &continues to shape plant biology through her trainees all around the world. Such an inspiration!!!

Summer vibes! @siamsadoyle.bsky.social @sharmavinod.bsky.social @sandeep18887.bsky.social @adrienheymans.bsky.social @loupitgreg.bsky.social Lorinda, Lin and Hemamshu! @umeaplantsciencecentre.se

Escape game in the city of Umeå! @umeaplantsciencecentre.se

🧵1/ New preprint out! We reveal that ERAD, a protein degradation pathway, selectively targets intracellular PILS auxin transport facilitators to control growth. This expands ERAD's role beyond protein quality control, right into developmental regulation. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

How do plants decide the fate of a wound and what to regenerate? Water availability! Abdul Kareem and colleagues show that regeneration outcomes after tissue cutting are controlled by water. A 🧵/n 👇 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Celebrating with our traditional paper cake! 📄🍰🌹

How plants sense injury in their barrier tissue, periderm? Painstakingly detailed and amazing work by post doc Hiroyuki Iida shows that wounding is sensed by the diffusion of two gases: ethylene and oxygen. @treebiocoe.bsky.social‬ @erc.europa.eu‬ 1/x 🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
