I repeat, the Common Signalling pathway for symbiosis is on fire! Kudos to our colleagues from Toulouse 🍄🌿

💡🔬 TECHNICAL INNOVATION 💡🔬

Neubauer et al. developed a Nostoc reporter strain enabling high-throughput quantitative monitoring of hormogonia differentiation in cyanobacteria as a response to biotic and abiotic factors.

Fig. 2.Confocal microscopy of N. punctiforme strains. Filaments from the indicated strains were taken from cultures grown in BG110 medium (not induced; A) or after incubation for 24 h in the presence of Anthoceros agrestis exudates (hormogonia induction; B) and visualized by confocal microscopy. Merged (2 channels) show the overlay of autofluorescence (magenta) and GFP fluorescence (green). Merged (3 channels) represent the overlay of magenta autofluorescence, bright field, and green GFP fluorescence. Hormogonia are identified as short filaments with small cells. Scale bar=20 μm.
