Happy to see this work out there 😊

Previously on @biorxiv-plants.bsky.social now in final published version: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Very excited that our review on carbon allocation to axial sink organs is published. Super writing experience and discussions with Anil and @bjazminrh.bsky.social, thank you both for your great work and ideas!

www.rootresearch.org/working-groups the #ISRR organized a minisymposium to introduce all 7 working groups that address different aspects of #rootsscience #roots #plantscience International Society of Root Research @rootscientists.bsky.social

Join us! We are going to have a ton of fun this summer with 2 week projects on plant and animal morphogenesis! @maizel-lab.org is leading a module. For my section we are going to live image developing leaves.

Mapping auxin dynamics in the formation of lateral roots with a dual-DR5 reporter Roots grow downward and branch outward through the process of lateral root (LR) formation, building a root system that secures water and nutrients. In most

Applications for the 2026 Vienna BioCenter Summer School Program are now open!

Please share this opportunity with talented undergrads or Masters students interested in broadening their research experience in molecular biology in the heart of Europe 🧬

Our work on mapping the dynamics of phospholipids during lateral root formation is now published in @jxbotany.bsky.social We show that PI(4,5)P₂ plays a key role: targeted reduction in pericycle promotes LR development.

If you know postdocs in the US whose work is restricted or becoming difficult, there are new fellowship possibilities in the south of Germany. Please, forward this information to them:

uni-freiburg.de/frias/call-f...

Our lab in Freiburg can also serve as a host — happy to discuss options.

I'm looking forward to a fun year of working with these folks! We met today, and they are excited to start sharing great plant science!

Glad to see this!

Hey Vadir, it was @ PlantBio2025 :)

Our #AmbassadorISRRWP6 representing at #PlantBio2025 🌱 Talking about root systems in barley! 😊

Inspiration time

A great group of young scientists.

A whole bunch of Assistants Features Editors from @theplantcell.bsky.social and @plantphys.bsky.social getting to know each other 💚

Last chance, tomorrow (Thursday June 26) to join a free, online bystander intervention training. It's eye-opening.What do you do when you see bullying or abuse? Maybe your first impulse isn't the best choice - join us to learn how to respond better! rootandshoot.org/bystandertra...

Guided by light, microtubules choreograph the directional expansion of cotyledons In 1880, Charles Darwin and his son Francis observed one of the first clues that light can direct plant growth, describing how young plants sense light at

I highlight a study showing how light modulates leaf expansion by controlling microtubule orientation.
