Great start to the @newphyt.bsky.social workshop at IISER Bhopal. Excellent opening talks by Prof. Ute @unicologne.bsky.social & @TheLahaLab (@iiscbangalore) on “Light-mediated development in early and land plants” Wonderful organisation by Sourav Datta & Prof. Liam Dolan. @gmivienna.bsky.social

Looking forward to presenting our work at the special workshop “Molecular Mechanisms of Light-Regulated Plant Development” organized by @newphyt.bsky.social www.newphytologist.org/events/molec...

Danger-associated #peptide modulates #iron #deficiency signaling and root growth in #Arabidopsis 📖 nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... by Shikha et al. @santoshsatbhai.bsky.social@WileyPlantSci #PlantScience This figure was created in BioRender (BioRender.com/ biorender.com/xiunmb0).

Happy to share that our new study is now published online in @newphyt.bsky.social We showed dat the PEP2–PEPR2 signaling module plays a key role in Fe-deficiency responses and root growth in Arabidopsis. doi.org/10.1111/nph....

🌱 SPECIAL ISSUE REVIEW 🌱 Lu et al. review the cysteine-rich peptides RALF and EPF/EPFL, and their roles in regulating growth, development, immune responses and stress adaptation, highlighting new mechanistic insights and challenges in peptide research. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/jxb/... #PlantScience 🧪

Preprint alert, please share!! With our new study, we engineered an orthogonal hypoxia-responsive system in plants inspired by mammalian HIF protein degradation. We demonstrated that this system could control protein stability and activity, enabling modulation of Oxygen sensing outputs. Here's how:
