Honoured & excited that ‘Breathing Underground’ has been funded by the ERC! This will let me explore one of the most fundamental questions of plant life: how roots breathe underground?
📣 The ERC Starting Grant call results are out! Find out which early-career researchers will receive funding, what they will be investigating, where they will be based... plus lots of other #ERCStG facts & figures for 2025! ➡️ https://t.co/cGctMhcJos 🇪🇺 #HorizonEurope

Great to see this out finally! Congratulations to everyone involved!
Hot off the press, first PI paper 🎉. Reporting a novel protein (VIA1) involved in thylakoid membrane biogenesis. VIA1 (similar to ESCRT-II) and bind to chloroplast ESCRT-III (VIPP1). Showing a direct role of VIPP1 in thylakoid biogenesis. @CellReports

Epigenetics in action 🌱 We show natural gene body DNA methylation polymorphisms in Arabidopsis shape gene expression and traits, and are linked with native environments - revealing epigenetic variation as a driver of adaptation and evolution.

Nature Plants - This study shows that epigenetic gene body DNA methylation regulates transcription and accounts for much of its variance in the Arabidopsis population, efficiently identifies genes...

Preprint alert! 🗞 We used SynBio to "simplify" the plant oxygen sensing pathway and implement it in yeast🍄. We can now control yeast growth through oxygen! But most importantly, Here's a very short recap of what we understood thanks to it: https://t.co/ACvuvOhKna
