Membrane trafficking meets root barriers, resilience, and carbon storage 🌱🌍
New discovery: Blocking clathrin-mediated endocytosis in Arabidopsis roots sparks ROS bursts → ectopic suberization. This might unlock ways to increase suberization in roots and C in soils

Proud to present the first data paper from the lab, published today in @pnas.org.

We describe a new mechanism for CLE peptides as local symbiosis-amplifying signals, promoting plant interactions with beneficial arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.

Congratulations @sagarbashyal.bsky.social et al.!
