Rainfall patterns during barley seed development underlie genomic variation for germination after flooding (Eva Maria Gómez-Álvarez , Margherita Marazzini , et al) doi.org/10.1093/plph... #PlantScience @aspbofficial
Rainfall patterns during barley seed development underlie genomic variation for germination after flooding
Barley's adaptation to rainfall patterns is associated with genetic variations that contribute to controlling seed germination after flooding.

How did oxygen-sensing evolve in plants?
In collaboration with @syno2xis.bsky.social Great work from @lauradc.bsky.social et. al. #plantscience @leverhulme.ac.uk

ERFVIIs as transducers of oxygen-sensing in the evolution of land plant response to hypoxia
Short summary:This study investigates the evolution of the low-oxygen response in land plants mediated by group VII Ethylene Response Factors (ERFVIIs). We identified conserved transcriptional signatu...

👏 Congratulations to Ole Pedersen on receiving the first Rens Voesenek Award at #ISPLORE2025JP! 🌱🌊

We are proud to see his work recognized by the @isplore.bsky.social community.
Beautifully engaging and Ted-talk worthy lecture by the first Rens Voesenek awardee Ole Pedersen at #ISPLORE2025JP 🌱🌊 Ole contributed significantly to our community, including all his work on oxygen dynamics in plants, especially in the field (and ocean!).

Did you know that if a Plant Cysteine Oxidase binds to an ERFVII peptide without oxygen for a bit, it moves into a conformation that is more active when oxygen returns? See Rebecca's paper in JBC www.jbc.org/article/S002..., collaboration with Benesch and Mecinovic labs from Oxford and SU Denmark!
Evidence of an activity-enhancing conformational shift in Arabidopsis thaliana Plant Cysteine Oxidase 4 induced by binding of substrate or substrate-mimics
Plant cysteine oxidases (PCOs) are a family of O2-dependent, thiol dioxygenase enzymes that help to coordinate plant responses to flooding by determining the stability of hypoxia-related transcription...

Huge thanks to the ISPLORE community for this award! Beyond the inspiring science in last few days, this is extra fuel to keep driving our low Oxygen research forward.
Phenomenal work by the organizers at Nagoya University.
See you in the UK for the next one! #ISPLORE2025JP
