In a new study, our Biology Section reveals how plants evolved molecular systems to detect UV-B and trigger protective responses—building their own "biological sunscreen".

New Article: "GWAS reveal SUBER GENE1-mediated suberization via type one phosphatases" https://t.co/KoIy6GUEo1

A genetic screen across Arabidopsis accessions identifies SBG1 as a regulator of root abscisic acid response and endodermal suberin deposition via type 1 phosphatases.

it’s out! excited to see copies of new textbook and it was a pleasure to work with great co-authors. Particular thanks to Alison Smith who led (dragged?) us all over the line to complete the project!

Plz RP. Come join us as (soon-to be) postdoc @slcuplants @Cambridge_Uni to study effector-targeted plant processes impacting plant cell biology and development.

Our team’s latest study, published in Science Advances, reveals a surprising new role for EXECUTER1 (EX1), a protein known for sensing harmful singlet oxygen in plants.

#iMMM2025 H. Montero @CerealSymbiosis @PaszkowskiLab reports single nucleus sequencing of AM tomato and Marchantia paleacea. Notably, he investigates both, plant and fungal nuclei which brings new fungal candidates for phosphate export.

1/13 🧵 Today, Bindcraft was published in @Nature , one of the most famous AIs in biology for designing protein–protein interactions (PPI). In my opinion. Bindcraft represents one of the most important advances in the post–AlphaFold2 era.

My lab's very first manuscripts are out!!!

- We identified nearly 60 conserved #RNA structures in plastids
- We found that transcriptional response to warm temperatures in whole seedling is confounded by response at organ level #thermomorphogenesis

We are thrilled to have our spatial single-cell atlas of the Arabidopsis lifecycle in @NaturePlants. It turns out that it is easy to generate aesthetic images when the spatial expression of 1,000 genes is available! 1/n

Happy to see Kevin’s work on ZIP transporters published. We found evidences that ZIP2 and ZIP8 are involved in Cu and Fe acquisition respectively and confirmed the role of ZIP3 and ZIP5 in Zn acquisition. Congratulations @KevinRobePhD !
