I am very excited to be sharing our new @dromius lab pre-print on a Marchantia gene MpGRAS7, with contributions from @Phil_Carella and @YangWeibing https://t.co/Ga8YX6yCEd

New opportunity to join our #EvoMPMI group @JohnInnesCentre as a Postdoctoral Researcher working in the mechanistic basis of immunity in diverse plants. Please spread the word, reach out by email, and/or apply if interested! More details here: https://t.co/9sVdl9BLoS

Very exciting to see my first, first author paper out now. Many thanks to my co-authors for all their hard work and support on this project!

Mycorrhiza symbiosis changes how plants interact with intracellular pathogens. New by @AlexWGuyon, @TheresaStaps, and Lyne Badot: Mutualist-pathogen co-colonization modulates phosphoinositide signatures at host intracellular interfaces https://t.co/LMkBXhU2hF Read further ⬇️

#nonseed2025 @DavidJHoey - how have plants acquired novelty? To get an answer requires working with several plant systems. More specifically he focuses on the acquisition of vasculature as a key innovation of land plant innovation. 🍎

Plz RP. Come join us as (soon-to be) postdoc @slcuplants @Cambridge_Uni to study effector-targeted plant processes impacting plant cell biology and development. https://t.co/csNTyCTK2d https://t.co/GsUdcCfyNK

New Article: "A mobile DELLA controls Medicago truncatula root cortex patterning to host arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi" https://t.co/PdJg0FiQQk Mobile transcriptional regulators DELLA and SHORT-ROOT control the number of root inner cortex cell layers able to host symbiotic AMF.

For under $100 (excluding camera) you can make a dedicated timelapse chamber for imaging plants at the microscale like this liverwort gemmae (about 0.2 mm!). Step 1 is finding an old microscope collecting dust somewhere 🧐

New paper! Carnivory and mycorrhizal symbiosis are alternative ways for plants to gain nutrients. Our study, led by my former postdoc Hector Montero, shows they rarely coexist, with repeated AM losses, rare exceptions, and gene co-options. https://t.co/yiswCQk5hf

Plant developmental genes share functions & expression, but align orthologs' promoters and often… no conservation. Or is there? In our new preprint, we show that conservation exists and is ancient, but was just obscured by genome complexity. https://t.co/yY3MS5pgxA

New OA Resource: "A single-cell, spatial transcriptomic atlas of the Arabidopsis life cycle" https://t.co/C8qZzlrW2t An extensive single-nucleus and spatial transcriptomic atlas of the Arabidopsis life cycle that represents 10 developmental time points in 6 diverse organs.

I’ｍ pleased to share our new paper on gravitropism in Marchantia, now out in @JXBot . Please check it out! https://t.co/T90cxaeZq9 Congratulations, Mimi!

I just published: Stop displaying journal names on your slides A mentoring event at a Congress called for better support of early-career scientists - but what followed sent mixed signals. This blog reflects on those moments and ends with a pledge. https://t.co/0QdBu3Cqjw

Sebastian Schornack @dromius kicks off the 'Microbial Infection Strategies' session with insights into symbiotic and pathogenic interactions in the vascular and non-vascular plants. #2025ISMPMI

I encourage all colleagues at #2025ISMPMI this year to go and speak to these wonderful people! P-425 looks especially interesting 🧐

I just published: Why I’m skipping the Congress this year (And why you should still publish your posters) Publishing your poster creates a citable record of your work and protects you from bad actors. #ISMPMI2025 #OpenMPMI #AcademicChatter #PhDchat https://t.co/8kb8pqxusS
