Just contact Yoan Coudert: www.ens-lyon.fr/RDP/signalis...

You have always dreamed to work on mosses and on cell polarity, we have a PhD position for you at RDP in Lyon with Yoan Coudert, collaboration with @dolfweijers.bsky.social

Figure 1 from Bascom et al JEXBOT comparing the arfa-septuple mutant's growth to that of WT, tir1/afb-quad, and iaa2-degron. The arfa mutant's phenotype is strong but less severe than those of the tir1/afb and iaa2 mutants.

The second new paper from the Estelle lab out this week describes the phenotype of moss lines lacking all seven Class-A ARFs (Activating ARFs) and was lead former postdoc Carlisle Bascom, Jr.

The TAIR12 genome reannotation has FINALLY been submitted to GenBank. Now we await review and approval. Stay tuned for updates, hopefully within the next month. Thank you to everyone that made this project possible. @labschneeberger.bsky.social @bar-plantbio.bsky.social @sigmafacto.bsky.social

Hello Bluesky! 🌟

This account was created a while ago but never really used—until now!🌱

We’re finally here and ready to share, connect, and explore.

Stay tuned for updates and fresh content. 🚀

Thanks Massi 🙏 Hope you are doing well 😊

It is real!!! 3 years after Joris Sprakel and I conceived the first ideas, the GreenTE Gravitation project has really started. We could not be happier after seeing all the ambition, joy and excitement among our ECR’s and PI’s. Plant Mechanobiology for the win!!! More info: www.green-te.nl

I am very happy to see this story published! This was a wonderful collaboration between the @mestelle.bsky.social lab (@ucsandiego.bsky.social) on the moss side, Annis Richardson’s lab on the maize side, and @luciastrader.bsky.social lab’s help throughout.

Thank you Sebastian 🙏

Thanks Tatsuya🙏🙂

I am watching you 😜

Synthetic deconvolution of an auxin-dependent transcriptional code How developmental signals program gene expression in space and time is still poorly understood. Here, we addressed this question for the plant master …

The glory of combinatorial control and combinatorial research

Just out in @cellpress.bsky.social, how auxin response factors and response elements combine to yield a diversity of expression patterns

Just out in Cell @cellpress.bsky.social. Amazing collaboration with @flowerwhatelse.bsky.social, Renaud Dumas, Matias Zurbriggen, Ken Birnbaum and François Roudier. And spearheaded by two amazing scientists: Raquel Martin-Arevalillo and Bruno Guillotin

Scooped by @flowerwhatelse.bsky.social 😅 but if you want to know how auxin can generate a myriad of transcriptional patterns you should check authors.elsevier.com/a/1kxK8L7PXu...

Check out this exciting GRC on plant single cell bio! I’ll be speaking about our collaborative @hfspo.bsky.social moss project with @tevavernoux.bsky.social Yoan Coudert, Lidor Shara-Moshe, Richard Smith, Javier Jauregui-Lazo, Laure Mancini and more!

There is a lot of talk these days about optimization and efficiency--of governments, of biology. But in a complex and fluctuating world, what is actually desirable?

I’m always impressed by Oliver Hamant (RDP, Lyon) grappling with and writing about this.
