I ❤️meetings where the community comes together in an open and welcoming manner. The atmosphere was great and scientific curiosity was at its peak. Thank you @michaelraissig.bsky.social @anneroulin.bsky.social Joop and the entire organisation team. #Brachypodium #Brachy2025 #IBRC2025 🧪 #photography 🇨🇭
Very nice talk by Dorota Kawa (Utrecht University, Netherlands) “Patterns of Stress Resilience: Beneficial Microbes Tailoring #Root Cells”
Check out the paper below for more info.

Anne Roulin (Agroscope, ,🇨🇭) is using a >300 accessions to look at flowering time in #Brachypodium. #Brachy2025 🧪 #PlantResearch
Lynn Clark (Iowa state, US), talks about evolutionary patterns in #Grasses on #Brachy2025.
We learned that #C4 probably evolved earlier than thought, now she is talking about parameters that impacted #root evolutionary patterns.

The final program of #Brachy2025 is online www.brachypodium2025.org/program2
This will be a fantastic meeting set in the Mediterranean beauty of the Lago Maggiore Area.
I am excited to welcome the Brachypodium aficionados to Switzerland, 10 years after my first Brachy meeting
