How do "friendly" rhizobia build a legume nodule? @AlbinTeulet found that some may carry hidden transcription factors - proteins that mimic DNA-binding folds to enter the plant nucleus and rewrite its developmental program.

🎃✨ Pumpkin perfection!

We were seriously impressed by the beautifully carved and brilliantly lit pumpkins from @TheSainsburyLab🕯️

We also got spiritedly competitive with our annual pumpkin carving competition 😄🎃

Who knew plant scientists were such talented artists? 🪚🎃🌿

1/ 🌿 Excited to share our latest MPMI Commentary:

“Tracking Rust Effector Protein Delivery into Plant Cells” by Ruby Tiwari & me.

📖https://t.co/5suJDFkcWL

It highlights a landmark study revealing how rust fungi deliver effector proteins into plant cells. 🧬

Beautiful animation of metabolic flux in the mitochondrial Kreb (TCA) cycle

The three "CO2" coming off the cycle is how you lose weight: carbon from your material body coming off as gas you end up breathing out
