Shade extensively regulates transcripts of cell wall genes & changes hypocotyl biomechanics presumably through Pectin methylesterification. Great team effort by Fabien Sénéchal Sarah Robinson Prashant Saxena Martine Trevisan Didier Reinhard & Evert van Schaik biorxiv.org/content/10.110…


In collaboration with Xuemei Chen's lab, we uncovered an essential role of microRNA156 in enabling plant growth plasticity in response to temperature and light changes -- nature.com/articles/s4146…. Congrats to all authors, and many thanks to our collaborators Xuemei Chen lab.

So happy to see it finally out, my post-doc paper Niko Geldner lab!! The 🍒 on top of the amazing time I spent in great lab and pretty Lausanne!! Thank you all co-authors for the efforts till the end 🤗 so glad I could contribute to understanding this fascinating structure 💍 🌱

Our effort in the Joe Ecker lab (Tatsuya Nobori Natanella Illouz-Eliaz 🎗️) to generate a single-nucleus atlas of seed-to-seed development in Arabidopsis, along ten developmental time points and a range of tissues is online! and browsable at arabidopsisdevatlas.salk.edu biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/9


Congratulations to Ana Lopez Vazquez first chapter of her thesis is published! Many thanks to Martina Legris Laure Allenbach Natasha Glover Christophe Dessimoz and Ed Lampugnani for invaluable contributions. @cig_unil SIB pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36972404/




This work on Orobanche minor was a great collaboration between 明治大学 and Salk Institute, involving Saori Takei, Yuta Uchiyama, Marco Bürger, Taiki Suzuki, Shoma Okabe, Joanne Chory, and Yoshiya Seto: doi.org/10.1093/pcp/pc…



Very proud of our latest TiBS review with Ulrich Hammes and David Stokes about PINs and auxin.🌱 😁 We compare PIN8, PIN1 and PIN3 structures and find interesting previously undescribed common features and some fascinating differences. Beautiful figures by Kien Lam Ung as always🤩


Very proud of the work of Ganesh M. Nawkar Martina Legris at @cig_unil with invaluable help from many others: Air channels create a directional light signal to regulate hypocotyl phototropism science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…


The first paper of our new lab at Colorado State University is out. Big thanks to Chan Yul Yoo for collaborating with us on this review.
