Dear ENPER community, We are pleased to invite you to the next ENPER meeting, which will be held in my country Bulgaria, from 26 to 28 August 2026 in Sofia. Save the Date!🌱🌱🌱

Excited to share our pre-print on how Sphingolipid-driven interleaflet coupling orchestrates ROP6 recruitment to nanodomains upon auxin. Great job from my PhD student Matheus Montrazi, @arthur-poitout.bsky.social, @alexmartiniere.bsky.social, @yvonjaillais.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Our work on mapping the dynamics of phospholipids during lateral root formation is now published in @jxbotany.bsky.social We show that PI(4,5)P₂ plays a key role: targeted reduction in pericycle promotes LR development. → academic.oup.com/jxb/advance-...

🚨 New in Developmental Cell @Dev_Cell Our team uncovered how plants sense phosphorus deficiency and delay flowering — a molecular “switch” that links nutrient stress to development. A step toward breeding nutrient-smart crops! authors.elsevier.com/a/1m2id5Sx5g... @MSU_PRI @MSUAgBio @MSU_PSM
