How does a single plant cell tell symbiont from pathogen? We show that the Symbiotic Determinant 1 of NFR1 evolved to facilitate nitrogen-fixing symbiotic signalling. I’m thrilled to share our published data from my PhD back in Aarhus! #symbiosis #juxtamembrane #ensa www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Congratulations 🎉 @jsontgerath.bsky.social , who received this year’s award for the best plant science master thesis @uni-freiburg.de Today, all our representatives at other Universities were asked to find the best theses at their universities

It was so great having you at @johninnescentre.bsky.social! Some amazing conversations on AI in writing, teaching, and the importance of plants 🌾 Grateful to be a part of the @aspbofficial.bsky.social community ❤️

#ThrowbackThursday to last week Thursday at #ISPLORE2025JP where we took a group picture of our fantastic community. Missing those conferences vibes? Scroll back through the #ISPLORE2025JP hashtag for some of the best moments 🌱🌊

Huge thanks to the ISPLORE community for this award! Beyond the inspiring science in last few days, this is extra fuel to keep driving our low Oxygen research forward. Phenomenal work by the organizers at Nagoya University. See you in the UK for the next one! #ISPLORE2025JP

#ISPLORE2025JP is over.. but not before a comedy performance and closing ceremony by the organizers Mikio Nakazono and Moto Ashikari 😆 Thanks so much to all organisers and sponsors for making this edition possible. It was truly amazing! Next edition reveal by @djgibbs.bsky.social: #ISPLORE2028UK

@rsasidharan.bsky.social pays tribute to Rens Voesenek for his major contributions to our field and #plantscience in general. 🌱🌊 Inspiring anectdotes and life lessons from Rens, who was a mentor to many of us. @utrechtuniversity.bsky.social

Beautifully engaging and Ted-talk worthy lecture by the first Rens Voesenek awardee Ole Pedersen at #ISPLORE2025JP 🌱🌊 Ole contributed significantly to our community, including all his work on oxygen dynamics in plants, especially in the field (and ocean!).

Congratulations to all #ISPLORE2025JP Best Oral and Poster presentation winners. Very high quality of ECR talks this year!

Enjoyed every bit #ISPLORE2024JP

So proud of @rimchaudhury15.bsky.social for winning best oral presentation award at #ISPLORE2025JP 🥇🤗☔🌱

It’s been a great opportunity for our lab to deliver four talks on different aspects of plant hypoxia and flooding research at #ISPLORE2025JN! Well done @linazhou.bsky.social @gunjansharma88.bsky.social & @drosborneplantsci.bsky.social for the great presentations! 🌱 💦 🌾 🦠 🌺 🫧 🇯🇵 #plantsci

So happy to have presented my work on the epigenetic basis of flooding tolerance in plants #ISPLORE2025JP 🌱🌊

Next @gunjansharma88.bsky.social talks about Histone demethylation on the regulation of hypoxia genes 🌱🌊 academic.oup.com/plphys/artic...

The second day of #ISPLORE2025JP starts with a great overview talk by @theplantlab.bsky.social on hypoxia regulation. Hypoxia is everywhere! #plantscience 🌱🌊

In the last session before lunch we have @n-end-rules.bsky.social open the Hypoxia sensing and signalling session describing a novel oxygen sensing substrate 🌱🌊 Exciting!

Jun Prof. Dr. Sjon Hartman @hartman-plantlab.com talking about VRN2-dependency in flooding stress memory at ISPLORE 2025 🌊🌱 #ISPLORE2025JP

Having a great time presenting our work at #ISPLORE2025JP, great people, great science, great food 👌🏻

The #ISPLORE2025JP audience is very happy the last talk standing between them and lunch was finished 😉 Official group photo still coming 📷

Coming to you live from #ISPLORE2025JP Fresh preprint from my lab showing that leaves progressively oxygenate and how this is important for their morphogenesis.Thanks to our collaborators from @Fra_LicO2si lab. #plantscience www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
