"Long-term research carries an intrinsic paradox: its true value emerges only after decades, whereas political agendas often demand short-term results. This mismatch makes sustained monitoring one of the easiest targets when public budgets come under pressure." www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Come join our group for an exciting PhD program!

Happy to share our latest article in @newphyt.bsky.social. We look at the impacts of high atmospheric CO2, heatwaves, nitrogen fertiliser and drought on #wheat stomatal performance, photosynthesis, water usage and yield. @drhollycroft.bsky.social nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Interested in plant development and/or cell walls? We (Sam Amsbury, Andrew Fleming and I) have three PhD positions at the University of Sheffield open for applications until 7th January. We offer a friendly, jointly-run lab, great facilities, an affordable city and proximity to the Peak District!

We are advertising a PhD project investigating a cellular mechanism that ensures protein quality control during mRNA translation in plants. Please get in touch on here or via email if you are interested and I can provide further details! Lab website: sites.google.com/site/danielg...

Our paper comparing stomata of the three annual Brachypodium species is out 🌾 bmcplantbiol.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.... A great collaborative effort between @lbmountain.bsky.social, & our friends at University of Silesia (Alexander Betekhtin and Anna Milewska-Hendel). Funded by @dfg.de and NAWA

Our latest! K63-polyUb of the ERECTA receptor kinase by PUB30/31 is required for the ligand induced receptor endocytosis for stomatal patterning. Our results show that ERECTA signals at the PM. Congrats, Liangliang, Minh & the team🌱! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Today at SEB 2025, we have an exciting #LICOR workshop looking at plant gas exchange across scales🌿🌾💦🌏. Environmental scientist Ian Smillie will introduce cutting-edge technologies that enable leaf to ecosystem level measuring of plant performance. #photosynthesis #stomata @sebiology.bsky.social

Day 1 of SEB 2025 in Antwerp. What a great venue 🏛🦁! It was real pleasure to be part of the P3 PEPG session looking at plant #photosynthesis this morning alongside speakers including @oulaghannoum.bsky.social. From now, time to enjoy the afternoon talks. @sebiology.bsky.social

Really looking forward to SEB 2025 in Antwerp this week. A really interesting #photosynthesis session tomorrow, followed by a #stomata session on Wednesday (I'll be co-chairing with @casparchater.bsky.social). Then on Thursday, #LICOR have a gas exchange workshop. @sebiology.bsky.social

Happy to share details of an online seminar I'll be taking part in tomorrow where I'll discuss #stomata. This will include evolution, biotechnology and "sensing" of stomata (including drone data capture). It's an early start, from 7.30am UK time - so don't forget to grab coffee ☕️. Login details 👇

RIPE Researchers, in work done for the CABBI Project, demonstrated that increasing the Rubisco enzyme in C4 crops like sorghum and sugar cane increases photosynthesis and yield as well! Their work was published in the National Academy of Sciences proceedings.

It's been a long time coming but I'm very happy to share this preprint with folks. 🙂 Thanks again to the Royal Society for funding this research. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #Plantscience #Plantevolution #Fernbiology

I'm looking for a postdoc to work for 3 years on the function of #circadian clock proteins in wheat. I also have a full-funded PhD opportunity. #plantscience Postdoc applications close on 2 April. jobs.unimelb.edu.au/en/job/91954...

Recently, two papers showed the potential of population genetics in Marchantia from @pierremarcdelaux.bsky.social and Dolan's lab. Here is my dispatch for Current Biology talking about them. www.cell.com/current-biol...

Still time to apply for this! Deadline the 17th of March.

Really glad to finally share this work. The first research conducted with @drhollycroft.bsky.social, in collaboration with ADAS UK. We used #optical and #thermal data from #drones together with ground measurements to map #wheat🌾 traits and fluxes. @sheffieldpps.bsky.social doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Here at @rothamsted.bsky.social we are fortunate to have a very large area of GM glasshouse. Here we are growing up enough plants to transform 18 different constructs, optimising the accumulation of EPA&DHA omega-3 fish oils. Camelina is the ideal crop for such an iterative approach.

Only 2 weeks to go until the deadline for talk and poster abstracts for SEB 2025. @casparchater.bsky.social and I are really looking forward to hosting keynotes @proftlawson.bsky.social, Dr John Ferguson and Dr Lorna McAusland for a session on #stomata and #crops. @sebiology.bsky.social Please RT!!

Another great job opportunity @BristolBioSci. This one is a lectureship in evolutionary biology, and we are looking for an academic lead to our MSc in bioinformatics, so genomics and phylogenetics will be strong cards to play!

Well, this is exciting, a first ever foray into 🌳 stomata. First up, the "living fossil" Ginkgo biloba, and the tulip tree 🌷Magnolia soulangeana. Can't wait! @drhollycroft.bsky.social
