Presentando mis últimos trabajos en el congreso de ESEB, donde propongo puentes entre evolución del desarrollo floral, polinizacion y mejoramiento de cultivos 🫛🌾

Contenta de participar en el congreso de la sociedad europea de evolución (ESEB) 2025. Este lunes estuve presentando trabajos sobre evolución del desarrollo floral que llevamos adelante en el labo de Biología Floral del IMBIV (UNC-CONICET). 🌺

Cerrando CLEVOL II con el labo

Contenta de participar en el segundo congreso latinoamericano de biología evolutiva, CLEVOL II, hablando acerca de competencia entre granos de polen y selección sexual en plantas con flores. Sigamos promoviendo la biología evolutiva en la región!!

Our lab's first review article written with @yadhusankar.bsky.social and @vijayalakshmi.bsky.social is out now in The Plant Journal! 🎉🌱 We discuss temporal regulation of (plant) development. When and how do plants control organ and cell identity progression? onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Dr. Emily Sessa, researcher & Director of the NYBG Herbarium, delves into the unique biology & history of ferns on this episode of the Joe Gardener Show podcast. She describes the ferntastic 🌿 world of "underdog plants" further in her book, linked below! #NYBGscience joegardener.com/podcast/all-...

Hoy @argomezcano.bsky.social @hdezfdez.bsky.social y yo publicamos en @elpais.com sobre Elisabeth Vrba, la paleobióloga revolucionaria, que falleció el pasado mes de febrero #paleontología #evolución elpais.com/ciencia/2025...

Really excited to say that my lab's paper on color transitions in Mimulus sect. Erythranthe is out! We found that some traits demonstrate evolutionary convergence in phenotype & genotype, while others are divergent, & that - as Bob Vickery found - bees prefer yellow! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🌱🌱🌱Big botanical news🌱🌱🌱 Announcing 'Build A Plant' by the Onyenedum Lab at NYU, a video series all about plant anatomy! I had a plantastic time working on this 🥹 4 eps are out now, covering root, shoot, secondary growth, and leaf anatomy: youtube.com/@joyceonyene... 🧪 #scicomm #botany #plants

Despite experiencing high summer temperatures, the interior of the capitula of 15 species of Mediterranean thistles blooming during the hottest time of year was substantially cooler than the air most of the time. esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... [Paywalled, DM me for pdf file ]

"Pollen Wars: Explosive Pollination Removes Pollen Deposited from Previously Visited Flowers" Anderson et al. find that explosive pollination may confer a pre-pollination, male-competition advantage to plants. Summary & analysis by Andrea Romero: www.amnat.org/an/newpapers...

This is a great post. @mhanusch.bsky.social @thomasdussarrat.bsky.social This will be interesting reading for the two of you as well!

We aimed to foster evo-devo research and networking in Argentina and the region in 2023. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

This research synthesizes my perspective on how plant developmental biology, particularly heterochrony, can be applied to crop improvement. Strelin, M. M., Diggle, P. K., & Aizen, M. A. (2023). Flower heterochrony and crop yield. Trends in Plant Science.
