How do #plants form vein networks (no cell migration, no direct cell-cell interaction)? GNOM-dependent combo of polar #auxin transport, auxin signaling & movement of auxin signal via #plasmodesmata patterns #leaf #VascularCells into veins #PLOSBiology plos.io/3RjYN48

As always very carefully done excellent piece of work from Enrico Scarpella's lab. Polar auxin transport and its movement via plasmodesmata in vein networking, a highly polarised system in plants

Please retweet: Open postdoc position in our lab to characterize the role of plasmodesmata in plant development, focusing on cell to cell trafficking of the KN1/ STM class of homeodomain proteins and mRNAs. Experience in plant genetics and/or cell biology/ microscopy is desired.

On long range signals controlling plant regeneration and some of our hypotheses on why such signals even exist

Place a tomato branch in water and roots will quickly emerge. One mutant did not grow roots in tap water, but could make them in de-ionized water. Hmm. Here is the story of this 100-year old mutation. (TLDR: It was the calcium) Thanks to José M. Pérez-Pérez! academic.oup.com/pcp/advance-ar…

בצער רב וכאב גדול אנו מודיעים על פטירתו של חברינו לפקולטה פרופ' אליעזר ליפשיץ ז"ל. אליעזר, גנטיקאי וחוקר בתחום הביולוגיה ההתפתחותית של הצמח, היה ממקימי הפקולטה לביולוגיה בטכניון. אליעזר ליפשיץ ז"ל 1934-2022

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of our friend and colleague Prof. Eliezer Lifschitz. Eliezer was a geneticist and a researcher in the field of plant developmental biology and one of the founders of the Faculty of Biology at the Biology Technion. 1934-2022

Looking for EU or UK PIs that would be willing to discuss with the brilliant Meital Salmor about the process of securing academic position. She is organizing a workshop for foreign postdocs in Israel and your insights on doing this in 🇬🇧🇪🇺 would be super helpful. Please RT.
