Plant developmental genes share functions & expression, but align orthologs' promoters and oftenโฆ no conservation. Or is there?
In our new preprint, we show that conservation exists and is ancient, but was just obscured by genome complexity.

Brilliant work from the Dangl group led by Dor Russ!
An efflux pump family distributed across plant commensal bacteria conditions host- and organ-specific detoxification of a host-specific glucosinolate https://t.co/9tAKu0GKsq
Ok, this is a big one! Proud to present our latest story on hydropatterning-a process that allows plants to sense moisture gradients in soil and activate branching. Johannes Scharwies defines the genetic basis for this response in maize and Arabidopsis!

After a mere blink in the cosmos -3 years as a preprint- our paper has found its home in @NatureComms . Thanks to all coauthors, the long supporting journey @Dinnenylab, and collaborators @JonikasLab and Michael Sussman. Oh, and by the way, I'm job hunting!!!
The dynamic Laisk method for leaf day respiration measurement is quick and accurate, reducing stomatal limitations. This is particularly advantageous for temperature-sensitive plants like bananas. Well done @barbenzev!
We're hiring! Research positions, one perfect for post-bacs https://t.co/mbScCaGyHt and one for MA/PhD level scientists https://t.co/pzFLpVofJh to study plant development: from cell polarity and gene regulation, to the impact of changing climate on leaf form and function.
Plant cells know what type to be based on signals they receive from their neighbors. But when you cut the root, cells rapidly change their identity to regenerate missing tissues, yet their neighbors persist... So how does that work?https://t.co/a1NlfQANTD

Part 2 of my postdoc project with @stanfordstomata is online now: we identify proteomes of stomatal lineage polarity domains, predict protein interfaces with the identified scaffolding proteins and show how SOK3, DLC1 and OPL2 co-localize at the phragmoplast.
