Congrats to Andrea Calhau from @rdplab.bsky.social for winning the Best Talk Award at "Seed 2025", the 10ᵉ edition of the French Seed Network Conference! 🌱

This year’s colloque, held in Nantes, brought together scientists around the theme Seeds & the agroecological, climatic, and food transitions.

🌽 Maize vs. Fusarium 🌽

Overexpressing a maize lipoxygenase (ZmLOX4) boosts resistance to Fusarium infection.

Glad that our maize Gene editing & transformation platform, at @rdplab.bsky.social, contributed to this research, led by the Lanubile's Lab.

Our latest on cell death and our second on maize: Using single-nucleus RNAseq of maize endosperm, Nicolas Doll (now @rdplab.bsky.social‬) shows that KIL transcription factors promote endosperm cell death to facilitate embryo growth - with a genomic imprinting twist! academic.oup.com/plcell/advan...
