🌱 Our collaborative review on the role of epigenetic control during root development and symbiotic interactions is now published in Plant Physiology! Thanks meuzanetti for inviting us to contribute to this piece, with Federico Ariel, Andreas Niebel et al. academic.oup.com/plphys/advance…

Please RT: The Van Damme (vandammelab.be) and the Chaumont lab (shorturl.at/2RWxa) are looking for a Postdoc and a PhD student. If you are up for a challenge on the interplay between cell biology and physiology in plants, do apply! jobso.id/iwpa

A new study from Tsiantis lab MPIPZ Cologne. We show that CUC1 acts as a polarity switch & provides instructive input into PIN1-auxin-based leaf marginal patterning that regulates leaf shape. Congratulations to all authors! These beautiful sectors.. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Review: ROS are key regulators of meristem functions such as quiescence & the directionality of cell division/differentiation. Within this context, the ROS/ hypoxia interface is an “outside/ in” positional cue for meristem functions.🌱🧬🔄 #PlantScience doi.org/10.1093/jxb/er…

The role of H3K9ac on the 3D organisation of chromatin in tomato by the lab of Moussa Benhamed who really brings my favourite crop in the spotlight pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Introducing Chromo, our new package for performing differential analysis in chromosome regions. Chromo works with any type of quantitative data, including RNA-seq, single-cell RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, ChIP-seq, and more. It will be available soon

🥇🎥 Check out the winners of the "Science in Shorts" Nature Awards! Colleagues from the Rhizosphere PSB (VIB Plant Science) explain their research on rhizospheres in this fun video and won the public's favorite prize at the "Curious2024 – Future Insight™" conference 👏 Nature Portfolio

How do TFs recruit the transcriptional machinery? This critical cellular function is incompletely understood. Led by postdoc Nick Morffy, we experimentally identify Arabidopsis ADs at scale and use this immense dataset to create an AD predictor, TADA. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Wolfgang Busch Wolfgang Busch, from Salk Institute will be leading the next LabEx TULIP seminar. 🗓️ Friday, september 13, 11 a.m. in Lynn Margulis seminar room, at INRAE Occitanie-Toulouse and on Zoom 💻 More info : labex-tulip.fr/eng/news/labex…

Our story on heat stress sensitive alternative splicing is published in Nucleic Acids Res. Can't thank enough my team and all collaborators especially M. Müller-McNicoll and Kathi Zarnack and their wonderful teams for the help with the splicing analysis and iCLIP Goethe-Universität academic.oup.com/nar/advance-ar…

Our work on spindle architecture regulation is finally online at Developmental Cell! Here a great video by Helen Saville showing our updated simulation! Special thanks to the reviewers for the constructive comments, which helped us considerably improve our work Schnittger Lab cytosim

Yesterday, two of our brilliant PhDs (from #FDFE team) presented their work at the 12th Utrecht PhD Summer School “Environmental Signaling in Plants”. Great job Emilia and Eline!
