👏👏 Well done Melissa for presenting your excellent work on lncRNA-based regulation of mycorrhizal and nitrogen-fixing #symbioses !🌱 🧬 🍄

@melissa-simonnet.bsky.social Inspired poster presentation at the Occitano Catalan plant biology meeting in Perpignan Proud PI 😉

Excellent talk from @ibrahimkeita.bsky.social presenting his PhD work on the regulation on symbiotic gene expression by lncRNAs 🧬 👏 👏 #proudPI

@ibrahimkeita.bsky.social Giving a great speech at the occitanocatalan plant biology meeting in Perpignan

Excited to attend the Occitano-Catalan plant biology meeting with this amazing group! @andreasniebel.bsky.social @yaranoureddine.bsky.social @melissa-simonnet.bsky.social @ibrahimkeita.bsky.social Stimulating meeting organized by colleagues from @upvd.bsky.social LGDP 🙏

We are thrilled to Host Sylvain Bischof today at LIPME in Toulouse

Our latest article on biological nitrogen fixation on the aerial roots of sorghum has been published in @plosbiology.org. We thank the @energygov.bsky.social for supporting this exciting project. journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...

🚨New paper published in @nature.com! Using pan-genetics across the Solanum genus🍅🥔🍆we reveal why gene duplications🧬are major contingencies in crop engineering. My postdoc work in the Lippman lab @CSHL, collab. with @katiejenike.bsky.social @mikeschatz.bsky.social chatz.bsky.social and many others!

🔬A un moment où la #science fait l’objet de mises en causes préoccupantes aux Etats-Unis 🇺🇸 (censure, arrêts de grands programmes et annonce de licenciements massifs dans la recherche publique), INRAE soutient le mouvement #StandUpForScience ✊ (1/2)

Stand up for science gathering in Toulouse to show our support to our colleagues from the USA

Really pleased to transition from 2024 to 2025 with Tatiana Vernie's work on the evolution of the common symbiosis pathway published @pnas.org 🔽 We finally demonstrate that ☘️ have maintained a genetic pathway to engage with🍄for half a billion years! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Dear French and Japanese colleagues, mark your calendars! We are organising the bilateral France-Japan "Frontiers in Plant Biology" symposium. Date: November 19-21, 2025 Location: Strasbourg More information soon! #plantscience

New Article: "Precise deletion, replacement and inversion of large DNA fragments in plants using dual prime editing" rdcu.be/d55WL ...a chromosome editing tech enabling the scarless deletion, replacement and inversion of large DNA fragments, up to the megabase scale. #PlantScience

Presentation by Noe Arroyo an @lipme-toulouse.bsky.social alumni (PhD supervised by @lnl24.bsky.social) at #RPB2025 “prophase diversity in Xylella fastidious” work he carries out @ IRHS.

Really proud of @ibrahimkeita.bsky.social presenting his PhD work on symbiotic long non-coding RNAs 🧬🌱 at #RPB25 👏 👏 Ibrahim is funded by @inrae-dpt-spe.bsky.social and @occitanie.bsky.social #plantscience

Big day today! @leapedinotti.bsky.social defending her PhD thesis!!! Léa has worked with @nicolasfreiditfrey.bsky.social on the role of CLE/CEP peptides during AMS. See her first chapter recently published 🔽 www.cell.com/current-biol...

in collaboration with @leapedinotti.bsky.social @kellerjeanphd.bsky.social @pierremarcdelaux.bsky.social @carogutj.bsky.social @nicolasfreiditfrey.bsky.social @fdecarvalhonie.bsky.social from @lipme-toulouse.bsky.social @lrsv-toulouse.bsky.social @mpi-mp-potsdam.bsky.social

Check our updated preprint lead by @malick-mbengue.bsky.social and Eve Teyssier⬇️ A discovery and a big question! - LysM-RLK have played a symbiotic function for 450+ million years (yes, as old as the land plants ☘️ !) - What if CO and LCOs were not essential for AM symbiosis after all ?

And @eveteyssier.bsky.social is on bsky!!

Check out our recent work 'Annexin- and calcium-regulated priming of legume root cells for endosymbiotic infection' in Nature Communications rdcu.be/d2Aye

🥳 Happy to share the publication of the last part of Thomas Roule's Ph.D. at IPS2 on the role of ARES lncRNA 🧬 in the modulation of Arabidopsis 🌱 root architecture. doi.org/10.1002/iub.... A great collaboration with the group of Federico Ariel 🧪
