🧪🌾INTERVIEW - His discovery challenges current textbook knowledge
PhD student Özer Erguvan from the @stephanevrg.bsky.social group discovered that two key sites in plant cell walls and not the middle lamella help cells stick together.🔬

People diving into a pool of books and figures, with text: How I learned to teach like a scientist
“I will miss the creativity of teaching.”
On #WorldTeachersDay, check out this #ScienceWorkingLife essay from a retired professor emeritus on how she challenged students to think beyond facts—and how she learned to teach like a scientist. https://scim.ag/4nvwosR

Pervasive splicing in a plant DNA virus
Viruses maximize their limited coding space through strategies that increase transcript and protein diversity. In mammalian viruses, splicing is a well-established mechanism for proteome expansion, ye...
How do geminiviruses maximize their limited coding capacity? Our recent preprint uncovers splicing of viral transcripts as one more strategy used by this viral family. We show that RNA splicing is prevalent in the geminivirus TYLCV — and required for infectivity! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

A confocal microscopy image shows root-colonizing bacteria clustering around an emerging lateral root, where localized glutamine leakage induces spatially confined reporter activity.
Using precise spatial and temporal analysis, researchers in Science provide insight into how bacteria around the root interact both with the plant and with each other.

Super exciting work, and a bonus to see a major university research department promote an exciting @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social preprint rather than wait 9-12 months for the final version 👏🏽

Membrane trafficking meets root barriers, resilience, and carbon storage 🌱🌍
New discovery: Blocking clathrin-mediated endocytosis in Arabidopsis roots sparks ROS bursts → ectopic suberization. This might unlock ways to increase suberization in roots and C in soils

"Jane Goodall showed us what a life in science could look like: rigorous discovery paired with fierce advocacy for what you study. She gave the world six decades of groundbreaking research on chimpanzees and their habitats, then turned that knowledge into a global movement for conservation." (1/2)
