Junior professor at China Agricultural University. Fascinated by plant-microbe interaction. Plant symbiosis, plant immunity and plant microbiome associations.
Are you excited about understanding the molecular underpinnings of arbuscular mycorrhiza? Then this PostDoc position may be for you: https://t.co/wbaEKfW9s0
Excited to share our new paper now online @ThePlantJournal. We reveal a nitrate-responsive regulatory network governing symbiotic nitrogen fixation in Medicago, identifying HHO3 as a central regulator. A wonderful collaboration with Xue and Qingchuan.

Plants reorganize their cytoskeleton to accommodate symbiotic microbes.
Our new paper in Science reveals how the formin SYFO2 drives actin remodeling during host–rhizobia and arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis.

Great teamwork with Thomas Ott lab.
What an honor to have Nobel Laureate Mario Capecchi give an special lecture at China Agricultural University! A truly inspiring encounter. #CAU#NobelLaureate
Congratulations and thanks to Michael Paries, all lab co-authors and our fantastic collaborators
@ShabekLab, @amiriamguercio. We report https://t.co/MiVl6lHYkt that the GRAS TF RAM1 interacts with WRI TFs to regulate genes essential for nutrient exchange in arbuscular mycorrhiza.
Happy to share our latest discovery of the autoactive CNGC15, sufficient to enhance root endosymbiosis in legume and field grown wheat: https://t.co/hjPLOxrIQI
Thank you to everyone involved! Special shout-out @NicMCook1, G.Gobbato, collaborators

I will move to National University of Singapore next April. There are several PhD and postdoc positions open (closest PhD deadline is 15 Nov 2024). You are welcome to apply. It will be great if you can RT. Look forward to the next chapter.
Last chance to apply! Postdoctoral position in root nodule symbiosis @UNIL, Switzerland🇨🇭. Please RT #PlantSciJobs. Deadline: 06.09.2024. Please apply via the portal. https://t.co/AzTalpM8bI
Furthermore, Zn ions regulate the activity of transcription factors by inducing their linear aggregation, which remains shrouded in mystery in the foundational research of molecular biology.
🌿 Thrilled to share our latest News & Views article! Huge thanks to Nature Plants for the trust and invitation. It was a great collaboration journey with Takuya. Congratulations to my new doctoral student, Lijin Qiao! Let’s strive for greatness together!

The roles of different metal ions in symbiotic nitrogen fixation have recently been revealed. Based on the framework distinguishing the responses of FUN and NLP to the fluctuating rhizosphere N, we propose the concept of joint regulation of nodule functionality by Zn-Fe ions.
@Nature FUN finally online. We find an unexpected secondary signal-zinc and its sensor FUN help plant perceive environmental signals and adapt to changing environments. Thank you Jens @DugaldEReid and Kasper and all collaborators. https://t.co/qLxK1o6KV9
