New from The Strain Team: 🎊 Springer Nature Discovers MDPI 🎊 Springer Nature has spawned a copycat journal series called "Discover" mimicking #MDPI journal titles and citation behaviours. We even made a browser game to prove it (see 🔗). Gross! 😀 1/n #ResearchIntegrity #SciPub #AcademicSky

📣The Plant Cell is recruiting Assistant Features Editors. The application period opens now and runs through September 15, 2025!🌱 👉Application information can be found at this link: blog.aspb.org/the-plant-ce... #plantscience

We're looking for a new PhD candidate to join the lab. Please share 🌱😄

The Rowe lab is recruiting a #PlantScience PhD student for 2025! You'll use our new ABACUS FRET biosensors to map the leaf #AbscisicAcid accumulations at low humidity in Arabidopsis, wheat and rice to understand how ABA regulates stomatal dynamics. #PhDposition www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

Excited to share our latest research on stomatal dynamics! We developed a microscope to image individual stomata. Maize stomata respond faster to light changes, optimizing CO₂ uptake, while chrysanthemum shows slower closure, affecting water use. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.... #Stomata

TODAY is DEADLINE DAY for abstract submissions for talks and posters at SEB 2025! @casparchater.bsky.social and I have a great lineup of Keynote speakers in our #stomata session including SEB president @proftlawson.bsky.social. Please spread the word!

If you want to present your latest #stomata research at SEB 2025, there are only 4 days until the submission deadline(7th of March)!! Excitingly, @casparchater.bsky.social and I can now also announce a brand new Workshop focused on measuring gas exchange across scales with @li-corenv.bsky.social👇👇

Great work showing the multifaceted role of FAMA regulating differentiation in stomatal and myrosin cells. Also check out my News & Views piece 📝 As a stomatal enthusiast I was especially intrigued by the potential separation of division and differentiation phenotypes 🌱🤔

In this interview, Dominique Bergmann @stanfordstomata.bsky.social talks about her research in stomatal development, her role as an Editor at Development, and how her passion for comparative biology has influenced her career: https://doi.org/10.1242/dev.204667

Only 2 weeks to go until the deadline for talk and poster abstracts for SEB 2025. @casparchater.bsky.social and I are really looking forward to hosting keynotes @proftlawson.bsky.social, Dr John Ferguson and Dr Lorna McAusland for a session on #stomata and #crops. @sebiology.bsky.social Please RT!!

Our @dfgpublic.bsky.social Research Unit "Cereal Stem Cell Systems" is now on Bluesky! Follow us if you are interested in grasses, stem cells and developmental biology. @simonrdg.bsky.social @schnittger-lab.bsky.social @hochholdingerf.bsky.social @yvonnestahl.bsky.social @cecilialaram.bsky.social

Happy to share our preprint on negative relationship between adaxial stomatal density and yield in wheat under field conditions, especially under water and nutrient limitation.

There is ONE WEEK left to apply for the #PlantScience #PhD position in my lab! This will use the latest #microscopy, #biosensor and #ecophysiology techniques!

2024 saw another record for bioRxiv postings. Thanks to all the CSHL staff, affiliates, authors, funders, and everyone who advocates for the project. Happy New Year and #letsmakethisthenorm ! 🧪
