🤩Very happy that we can finally announce #XIM6!!! 🍃🌿🌴🌵 Stay tuned for more announcements...

In collaboration with scientists from Germany, China and US, we spent 8 years on maize root domestication and adaptation with global water availability. Finally it is out nature.com/articles/s4158……..thanks for all collaborators and funding! DFG public | @[email protected] Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn

Our paper on local adaptation of seminal root number in maize 🌽 is now out in Nature Genetics. This story started 8 years ago as a postdoc project of Peng Yu (Peng Yu). A 🧵 on some of our major findings 👇 1/13 nature.com/articles/s4158…

Instead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to put pressure on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research

We often measure AM fungal colonisation assuming it tells us something about function. But… what does it tell us? A short Letter in New Phytologist where I ask what root colonisation really means for plant growth, P uptake, and defence. nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np…
