There are still tickets for our Pint of Science UK session on Wednesday 'Citizen Science: Research Gone Wild' where I will be presenting a retrospective on the Great British Liverwort Hunt which we undertook in 2021! pintofscience.co.uk/event/citizen-… Sebastian Schornack George R. L. Greiff

New paper! The lab of Liam Dolan Liam Dolan Lab recently discovered that KATANIN-mediated microtubule severing is key to regulate the formation, number and organisation of polar organisers in Marchantia polymorpha. Now out at Development.

Extremely thrilled to share that the Zygnema #genomes paper is now out Nature Genetics We hope that this will be a great resource for all #plantsci #algae MadLand #evolution rdcu.be/dGnWJ

The Loreleia marchantiae back in full swing this year. This parasite/ endophyte on Marchantia polymorpha is often mistaken for Ricknella fibula but is certainly less common! It seems to fruit all year round, at least at Glasgow University!

Pleased to share our latest research on the evolution of endosymbiosis-mediated nuclear calcium signaling in land plants! Fantastic PhD student Anson Lam with contribution Dave Lawson Hannah Wright and support John Innes Centre Advancing Plant Health Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research

Do any bryologists or lichenologists know of any papers discussing the clearing / inhibition zones made by mosses? Whitish clear zones around moss patches where they have cleared algae and lichens from the frontiers are very common on walls in urban areas. I'd love to know more.
