Paradoxes lingering around our lab ever since we started working on CLE peptide signaling finally resolved, genetically 🫛🫛🫛🥕: One type of CLE signaling must be dialed down so that another type can drive root phloem initiation and differentiation! ⚖️ https://t.co/YopKGlkMWL

Discovered miR396 as a barrier to shoot regeneration in tomato crops. Suppressing miR396 boosts regeneration rates, facilitating gene-editing in low-efficiency genotypes. #CropGeneticEngineering @OxfordJournals Details: https://t.co/n4L0yPdSqy
