Happy to announce that I have started my own research group at the MPIPZ and that I am looking for a postdoc who would like to investigate Marchantia prothallus development with me! Please spread the word and/or apply if interested :)

Shocked and sad

Nice

ASPB announces Anna Amtmann (University of Glasgow) as the next Editor-in-Chief of Plant Physiology, succeeding Yunde Zhao. Anna brings a strong vision for scientific rigor, inclusive publishing, and innovation in scholarly communication. bit.ly/4sQzpGY

Congratulations Jake @mediocre-jake.bsky.social, Bekky Feltham and team on their phenomenal effort in putting together the E3-ome, published in Cell www.cell.com/cell/fulltex.... An extremely valuable resource for ubiquitin researchers.

New Article: "Rice false smut fungus hijacks rice lipid signalling to manipulate floret development and immunity" rdcu.be/e9Dlf Fungus disrupts floret development and suppresses immunity by secreting the effector Sxp1, which targets a lipid transfer protein. #PlantScience

New OA Article: "Stress drives plasticity in leaf ageing transcriptional dynamics in Arabidopsis thaliana" rdcu.be/e80cP Single-nuclei atlas. Drought advances leaf maturation in a dose-dependent manner. Mesophyll-specific FRO6 overexpression partially restores growth.
