🌱💡 Did you know nuclear pores do more than let molecules in & out? Our new study shows they also act as control hubs for pri-miRNA transcription & processing!
A surprising twist in how plants fine-tune gene silencing.

Join us in Málaga in 2026!!!

Thrilled to see our review published in Current Opinion in Plant Biology! 🌱✨
With @camilagoldy.bsky.social, Mariana Sotelo and Virginia Barrera, we discuss how cell biology and gene regulatory networks shape root cell expansion & plasticity.

Does the smell and flavor of strawberries depend on variations in gene-associated transposons? It seems so! Check out our new preprint! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Hi plant epigenetics fans!
I have updated the Plant Epigenetics Starter Pack to include additional researchers in the field:
@jacobsenucla.bsky.social @pecinka-grp.bsky.social @manavellalab.bsky.social
Please let me know if you wish to be added to the Starter Pack!

Do you want to know more about how transposons control plant gene expression? here is our new review, with a twist 😉, may the force be with you!

Amazing talk by @manavellalab.bsky.social today at CBGP. Key message: zoom out to see what is around your gene of interest.

📢 We meant it when we said we had something for everyone!
Participants of the African Plant Genomics Symposium will learn how to get their research findings published in top scientific journals. 👩‍🔬📝🌱🧬
We are excited for the presentations from Science and from The Plant Cell!

Last good news from 2024!
Our latest paper on TE-derived small RNAs is finally out! It reveals a beautiful buffering mechanism involving epigenetics, chromatin organization, and pathogen resistance. A great collaboration with @plantevolution.bsky.social, don’t miss it!
