Happy to see this paper www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
in @science.org showing how ROS regulate auxin signalling and control root branching @uniofnottingham.bsky.social & Durham University @hydrosensing.bsky.social @ukri.org @erc.europa.eu Many congratulations to the team!

I'm so very excited to see this out - a single cell and spatial transcriptomic analysis in the rice root reveals mechanisms by which roots can respond to different below-ground growth conditions - including compaction. Congratulations to everyone for persisting in difficult times. rdcu.be/ej8Ui

Incredible effort by the whole team—thank you all! Big step toward designing crops for tough soils. @uniofnottingham.bsky.social @ukri.org @hydrosensing.bsky.social [email protected] A tribute to a collaborator, mentor and pioneer late Prof. Philip Benfey.

Thrilled to see our work now online @nature.com
This study reveals how individual root cells sense and respond to real, compacted soil environments.

beautiful spatial transcritomics of rice root in gel & soil conditions and huge credit to Mingyuan and colleagues.

please share - 2 postdoc positions available - molecular physiology of stomata and plant water use of efficiency

(1/2) Three #plantscience papers in @science.org this week:
Scharwies et al find that ethylene, auxin and an arabinogalactan protein work together to control lateral root branching in response to water availability in maize
www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Proud to share our latest published work on moisture responsive root development-a process we call hydropatterning! We find that this process has been under differential selection during maize breeding and the gaseous hormone ethylene prevents branching in air.
