Excellent stuff @p-bourguet.bsky.social !

Excited to see our story on epigenetic mediated aclimation of plants to fluctuating light patterns out today in doi.org/10.1111/nph..... This work started 6 years ago co-supervised with the amazing @proftlawson.bsky.social and led by the brilliant @robynemm.bsky.social. 1/2

Happy to share the results of a long-haul post-doc project, now online @science.org, aiming at understanding the rules of transgeneration epigenetic inheritance over TEs in plants and its extent and impact in nature. More below! doi.org/10.1126/scie...

@tinaschreier.bsky.social has been awarded an @erc.europa.eu Starting Grant for research into the cell biology of C4 photosynthesis 🌱 Tina’s project will explore the cell biology that leads to the formation of specialised bundle sheath cells in C4 plants 👇 bit.ly/4mWFGhh

We are pleased to share that P4S Research Fellow @jamespblloyd.bsky.social from the University of Western Australia was recently awarded a Grains Research and Development Corporation Mid-Career Research Fellowship 🌟 Read more 👉 www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

#PlantBio2025 I’ll be speaking in the final plenary—sharing the story behind this paper and some new, unpublished work from my lab at TSL. Hope people stick around till the end (though a few already warned me they’re leaving early 😅)!

New Pre-print! A long-standing question for transcription factor biology is how their chromatin context dependency works in plants. In this collaboration with Fred Berger lab, we present some new ideas not only in Arabidopsis but also in Marchantia. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Very happy to share our protocols paper for CELLO-seq. This will make single cell long read RNA-seq more accessible and provides analysis guidelines. We hope this helps the #transposon #TEsky community and folks working on #singleCell isoform and allelic #gene expression. doi.org/10.1038/s415...

I have a Postdoctoral Research Fellow position starting in January to study the evolution of seed gene networks using the fern Ceratopteris! Interested? More info here: www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DNU179/r... Closing date 31st July. 🙂 #PlantScience #PlantSciencejobs

I’m sharing my very personal story to encourage everyone to participate in and celebrate Pride month. All our voices are needed to protect diversity and support the queer community. #PRIDEmonth 🌈. rootandshoot.org/forever-prid...

Grateful to share that our study on "The genetic architecture of cell type–specific cis regulation in maize" is now published in @science.org! Huge thank you to all co-authors and the 4 tough, but fair, reviewers who all helped to improve the study 🌽🧬 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

I'm thrilled to share that our study is now published in Cell: Extensive N4 cytosine methylation is essential for Marchantia sperm function. www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... This paper confirms our 4mC discovery in Marchantia sperm and takes it much further. A thread: 0/13

Wonderful talk from @delfidorussen.bsky.social at #Monogram2025 about DNA methylation mutants in wheat. You can read the full MET1-1 mutant characterisation which was just published this week @jxbotany.bsky.social ⬇️

I’m very happy to share the published version of our paper on the role of MET1 in wheat 🌾 🧬 It’s been really exciting to discover more about DNA methylation in wheat and it’s huge polyploid genome doi.org/10.1093/jxb/...

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

New year, new paper! Now published in @nature.com. We identified and characterised diverse immune cell states in plants under pathogen attack. My postdoc work in the Ecker lab at @salkinstitute.bsky.social. A thread (0/n) #PlantScience www.nature.com/articles/s41...

1/10 We are thrilled to share our preprint on spatial transcriptomics in wheat spikes led by the amazing @katielong.bsky.social and Ashleigh Lister. We resolved expression of 200 genes to cellular resolution. Pre-print👉 tinyurl.com/c7t3kncf., @johninnescentre.bsky.social @earlhaminst.bsky.social
