Enoch Enoch Lok Him Yuen Tolga Bozkurt describing his beautiful work on a Phytophthora effector that subverts host RabGAP #PPATH24

Sad to be missing #PPATH24 this year, but I haven’t escaped plant pathology entirely. Spotting some interesting phenotypes in rural Ontario 🇨🇦

Does anyone have an iron? If so, bring it my poster 004! And while you're at it, let's chat about the discovery of the MycFOLD effector family in AM fungi. #PPATH24

Happy to see the endosperm part of the wheat MRC story finally published in Plant Physiology! Stay tuned for more on MRC in leaves! academic.oup.com/plphys/advance…

Buff-tailed bumblebees favor hibiscus species with bigger bullseye petal patterns, new research finds. scim.ag/8kp

Painting by numbers: Flowers like hibiscus use an invisible blueprint early in petal formation that dictates the size of their bullseyes! Awesome work by Lucie Riglet & Edwige Moyroud's Team Hibiscus with modelling by Argyris Zardilis Read Science Advances paper science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Congrats Lucie, Edwige Moyroud and team! The bees like big bullseyes and they cannot lie!

I honestly find it difficult to post about our own papers but I’m going to try and do a better job from now on: I’m so happy to see this story out, we started the team at SLCU to try and use gene manipulation in an unusual system with confocal imaging and modelling…1/n

🌺 Plants produce colourful patterns to attract pollinators, like the bullseye-like pattern of Hibiscus flowers. 🐝 The size of the bullseye surrounding pollen influences how attractive they are to bees. Explore the findings from @SLCUPlants 👇 cam.ac.uk/research/news/…

I'm very grateful to The Royal Society and the many researchers who have helped me along the way to securing this fellowship. Looking forward to getting started! #meiosis4eva

KhongSam Chia Fourth talk by KhongSam Chia , Exploring the Functional Diversity of NLR Immune Receptors in Divergent Land Plant Lineages

I had a great time presenting my research yesterday and thinking about the questions/suggestions I got afterwards.

It was a pleasure to host Salaudeen Salaudeen Bandanaa in the lab this summer for his MSc project. Salaudeen worked on parasitic nematode effectors with Daniel Daniel Lüdke
