Thursday saw the Agricultural Universities Council launched with Sir Charles Godfray and Melanie Welham (Exec Chair BBSRC) supporting the event ! Looking forward to collaborating on UK Ag. @CEIAgri @WarwickLifeSci #AUCResearchStrategy

The cabbage tree (ti kouka, Cordyline australis), a lily with more usable carbohydrate per g/FW than sugar cane! What’s not to like? Matches Kauri as my favourite tree. Suffer(ed) from sudden decline (bacterium vectored by the passion vine hopper). @BacPlantDis #PlantHealthWeek

We have an exciting, multidisciplinary 4 year NSF/BBSRC funded project on plant systemic immune signalling, collaborating with the Kachroo laboratories in Kentucky, USA. Checkout; https://t.co/Cgc2JWlARk

@KamounLab I know, disappointing. They need to up their game.

The mighty majestic Kauri (Agathis australis) often > 1000 yo, has but one minor weakness; Kauri dieback caused by Phytophthora agathidicida. Success in plant health will be the knowledge to mitigate such impacts on our global flora #PlantHealthWeek #PlantHealthDay @BactPlantD

Favourite plants? Stuck between two, Malus x domestica presented here in a jug of my mind blowing, clear sparkling cider and the iconic New Zealand cabbage tree Cordyline australis (tī kōuka); who needs 5-a-day? #PlantsMakeLifeBetter @BactPlantDis #planthealthweek @WarwickLifeSci

@JWM177 Puny John, oldest truck in the book using the grandchild's wheelbarrow for scale. What's the disease?

Looking forward to the Bacterial Plant Diseases mid-term meeting here in sunny Sheffield. Finally F2F! @BactPlantDis

Exciting opportunity for a PDRA cell-biologist to join my group in Warwick to study plant metabolic immunity, using organelle targeted genetically encoded reporters to understand cellular processes underpinning disease and defence.

Finally, shamed into a tweet by @KamounLab. Sharing, rapid transcriptional dynamics underpinning ETI generated SAR by my highly talented ex. PhD student @GaikwadTrupti24 Anticlockwise bottom right RPM1, RPS4, control (PTI) and RPS2 activated luciferase activity. Enjoy
