Happy to share my very first News and Views with Marie Barberon on NPFs, ABA and suberin!

Our review with Marie Barberon is out! We discuss recent advances on plant mineral nutrition, nutrient carriers' localisation and nutrients sensing. 😁 Nutrient carriers at the heart of plant nutrition and sensing sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Just out in Nature Microbiology: Plant commensal type VII secretion system causes iron leakage from roots to promote colonization. By Yunpeng Liu, Ruifu Zhang et al. rdcu.be/ddg6R.

A major role of coumarin-dependent ferric iron reduction in strategy I-type iron acquisition in Arabidopsis (Vanessa Paffrath, Yudelsy A Tandron Moya, Günther Weber, Nicolaus von Wirén, Ricardo F H Giehl) buff.ly/3SYpnUX ASPB #PlantSci

Spatial IMA1 regulation restricts root iron acquisition on MAMP perception nature.com/articles/s4158… Very nice paper!👏

Zinc deficiency is the most abundant microdeficiency of plants globally. It affects up to 50% of all arable lands. We show that Brassicaceae plants (broccoli, radish) actively secrete peptides to increase root mass under zinc starvation. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

A big step to better understand radial transport of nutrients in roots!

Our new preprint! 🌱 We identified four new AtZIP transporters localized at the root outer domain which contribute to metals acquisition from the soil! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

GWAs reveals SUBER GENE1-mediated suberization via Type One Phosphatases biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #biorxiv_plants

Very proud to be part of this amazing story!🥳

Happy to share our latest paper on metal nutrition in plants, with a special focus on zinc ! 🌱 journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/a… #Arabidopsis #Zinc #Transporter #ZIP

Cooperation between a root fungal endophyte and host-derived coumarin scopoletin mediates Arabidopsis iron nutrition Van Dijck et al. 📖 nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np…

Interested in Fe nutrition and coumarin secretion, please read our new article!

Very excited to see our Niko Geldner lab x Feng Zhou lab work featured on the cover of Science! (1/5) We reveal how root architecture and nutrient leakage shape spatial patterns of microbial colonization, moving beyond traditional models of uniform exudation.
