We are looking for a Head of Proteomics Unit at our international and dynamic Max-Planck-Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology in Potsdam Germany. Applications are welcome until 30.September 2025.

This new research shows that leaf oil accumulation in engineered tobacco alters abiotic stress responses by reducing stomatal aperture. Using PlantArray, researchers tracked whole-plant transpiration in real time, revealing the physiological consequences of this metabolic shift

Natural plant populations maintain diverse resistance genes, but crops often lack this diversity, making them vulnerable to rapidly evolving pathogens. @XiaoxiaoZhangA et al. used DNA shuffling on barley Mla7 and Mla13 genes to create MLA variants, some gaining the ability to
