Always a pleasure to listen to Franziska Fichtner talk Tre6p and to see our collaborations as part of the bigger and very impressive picture!

Research assistant position open in the University of Cambridge in the lab of Prof. Jim Haseloff. The appointee will help develop new approaches to bioproduction in the model liverwort plant Marchantia polymorpha. jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/47003/

Great talk from Jaz Humphreys Jazmine Humphreys today on alternative splicing. This adds another layer of complexity to our RNAseq datasets! 🧬 ARC Centre of Excellence for Plant Success IPMB2024

Outstanding work!

Are you interested in Plant Development? Our group at Centro Nacional de Biotecnología (CSIC) is looking for a motivated student to carry out a PhD project investigating the molecular mechanisms controlling plant shoot branching, a process with great agricultural impact. Write to me or to Michael Nicolas

Happy to share this work from my postdoc time with Christine Beveridge and new data from HHU and CEPLAS We show that trehalose 6-phosphate is downstream of strigolactones but independent of the known BRC1 pathway. please check it out nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/VPVJIGCW… #T6P #Tre6P

Happy to share our latest paper in JXB on the strigolactone-induced degradation of the SL receptor AtD14. Not all is MAX2 and SMXL6/7/8! A work done at Centro Nacional de Biotecnología (CSIC) by Elena Sánchez in a great collaboration with Francesca Cardinale, Cristina Prandi Group & Marco Bürger. academic.oup.com/jxb/advance-ar…
