The lab of @elkebarbez.bsky.social strikes again 👇 Cell wall charge acts as a tunable electrostatic gate controlling iron availability in roots. Really nice work linking extracellular physics with nutrient homeostasis.

Cell wall charge gates iron availability in plant roots https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.64898/2026.03.15.711884v1

This work would not have been possible without the help of: @albertoglezdelgado.bsky.social @wabniklab.bsky.social @cbgpmadrid.bsky.social @csic.es @upm.es @ijpb-versaillescly.bsky.social @spsplantsciences.bsky.social 📄 Read it here: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Our observations fit a model in which evening-phased genes sense photoperiod through coincidence mechanisms and change transcription dynamics of morning-phased genes. All this, brought to you by the incredible @albertoglezdelgado.bsky.social @wabniklab.bsky.social Let us know if you like it!!

🌱 New preprint out on bioRxiv! How do plants sense seasonal changes in day length? In our new study, we profiled high resolution (2h) RNA seq time courses in tomato across three photoperiods to uncover how light duration shapes gene expression dynamics. Summary in next post...
