Our new preprint on ZIP transporters and their role in metal acquisition.
Our new preprint! 🌱 We identified four new AtZIP transporters localized at the root outer domain which contribute to metals acquisition from the soil! https://t.co/tOOLEePBQj

Extremely happy to share an early view of @ColleenDrapek’s amazing work on visualizing how gibberellin dynamics help legume roots do their part to help feed us and protect the environment. This was a great collaboration with @gilesedoldroyd and co-authors @slcuplants

We will be investigating how critical enzymes are localised and activated as well as how cell wall changes control physiological performance in a highly coordinated and tissue-specific context.
