Do you want to join my plant ecophysiology lab studying plant stress and mortality? I am hiring a biological scientist, a permanent research support position. Please share! Job posting and more information available here: explore.jobs.ufl.edu/en-us/job/5339…

I am so excited that this is work is published! Please check out this tour-de-force of Conchi Manzano which describes the development, function and genetic regulation of the tomato exodermis. Bonus - this cell wall barrier is actively repressed in inner cortical layers.

Come join us for an exciting project!

We are hiring! Come join us as PhD student TU München to explore the mechanisms of plant water use in response to drought and heat across scales. In close collaboration with EPFL (@GrossiordCha) Deadline: March 5th, 2025. More details: mls.ls.tum.de/rsi/open-posit…

📢Apply now to become a #PhD student at TU Munich!🌳 The group of Root-Soil Interaction is looking for a PhD student with background in plant physiology/ hydrology, soil physics, biology or related. More details below👇 #PhDStudent #ResearchInBavaria

Now out: Early-maturing #sorghum genotypes with high root-to-shoot ratio, rapid mycorrhiza (AMF) establishment, and reduced water use before flowering can maintain yield & biomass production on nutrient-poor semi-arid #soils under drought nature.com/articles/s4159…. Thanks ICRISAT

The power of co-imaging reveales how patchy nutrient distribution challenges life: increasing heterogeneity decreases the ability of trees to mobilize & take up necromass-derived P from forest soils: Sebastian Loeppmann, Sandra I. Spielvogel, Marius Schmitt, Klaus Jarosch: doi.org/10.1016/j.soil…

#AMF are phenomenal: #Sorghum switches on its #mycorrhiza to mobilize and transport #nitrogen to the #root by enhancing AMF carbon supply, BUT only under #drought stress in low-fertile tropical #soils. Rozy Munene, Mutez Ali Ahmed, Kevin Z. Mganga 🌾, Callum frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Happy to announce that our initiative TERRA was selected as a #ClusterOfExcellence by DFG public | @[email protected]. Greatest thanks from K. Rehfeld, O.
