Honestly, my experience with professors here in the U.S. has been nothing short of beautiful.
I recently read a recommendation letter one of my professors wrote for me, and I was stunned. The care, the precision, the way he described my work…

Siyu Song et al. found that FERONIA kinase and LRX1/2 play an integral role in shaping the rhizosphere microbiome. Read the article to learn more: https://t.co/LUPXZhDtIc @SiyuSong3 @UBCMicroImmuno

Take a look into the year 2000 time capsule: a milestone in plant science 🌱

Arabidopsis thaliana—a small flowering mustard—became the first plant to have its entire genome sequenced, transforming the field of plant biology. Salk scientist Joseph Ecker co-led the international Arabidopsis Genome Initiative and sequenced one of the plant’s five chromosomes, while the late Joanne Chory advised the national effort.

That breakthrough laid the foundation for Salk’s Harnessing Plants Initiative, which has now sequenced more than 900 plant genomes. Today, Salk scientists are using this knowledge to develop improved varieties of wheat, rice, corn, and other staple crops—advancing nutrient use, drought tolerance, and disease resistance.

[Salk Institute @salkinstitute]

Nearly everything you know about plants was first discovered in a plant you’ve likely never heard of: Arabidopsis thaliana. Arabidopsis has taught us how plants respond to light, which hormones control plant behavior, and why some plants grow long, deep roots while others grow them shallow and wide.

But despite its beloved reputation among plant biologists worldwide, many elements of the Arabidopsis life cycle have remained a mystery.

Salk Institute researchers have now established the first genetic atlas to span the entire Arabidopsis life cycle, from single seed to a mature plant, capturing the gene expression patterns of 400,000 cells. The publicly available resource will help expand research and development in plant biotechnology, agriculture, and environmental sciences.

In this mini-review, we take a deep-dive into the wonderful world of receptor-like kinases, and how they're evolutionarily poised to sense diverse cues and shape the plant microbiome!

@Stomata_Tweets @TexasScience @ut_mbs Loved interacting with both of your students! I also work on RLKs, but study their roles in shaping root microbiome. Interesting work!

[Aditi Bhat @jumpy_botanist]

In a fun and engaging manner, @K_Bioguy_Cox shared how we can use expansion microscopy to effectively study stress responses in duckweed! What I really loved was how his lab organizes various outreach activities to make such complex mechanisms easier to young students! #aspb
