ERFVIIs as transducers of oxygen-sensing in the evolution of land plant response to hypoxia Short summary:This study investigates the evolution of the low-oxygen response in land plants mediated by group VII Ethylene Response Factors (ERFVIIs). We identified conserved transcriptional signatu...

How did oxygen-sensing evolve in plants?
In collaboration with @syno2xis.bsky.social Great work from @lauradc.bsky.social et. al. #plantscience @leverhulme.ac.uk

👏 Congratulations to Ole Pedersen on receiving the first Rens Voesenek Award at #ISPLORE2025JP! 🌱🌊

We are proud to see his work recognized by the @isplore.bsky.social community.

🎉 Congratulations to Juan and Tobias for receiving the Best Oral Presentation and Best Poster Presentation awards at #ISPLORE2025JP! 🌱 Fantastic recognition of their excellent research and presentations — well deserved.
Thanks to @isplore.bsky.social for supporting early career researchers.

Evidence of an activity-enhancing conformational shift in Arabidopsis thaliana Plant Cysteine Oxidase 4 induced by binding of substrate or substrate-mimics Plant cysteine oxidases (PCOs) are a family of O2-dependent, thiol dioxygenase enzymes that help to coordinate plant responses to flooding by determining the stability of hypoxia-related transcription...

Did you know that if a Plant Cysteine Oxidase binds to an ERFVII peptide without oxygen for a bit, it moves into a conformation that is more active when oxygen returns? See Rebecca's paper in JBC www.jbc.org/article/S002..., collaboration with Benesch and Mecinovic labs from Oxford and SU Denmark!

This was ❤️🥹

Plant biologists enjoying Japan

#ISPLORE25JP has been such a fabulous meeting. I got to remember & honor my mentor, watch my PHD twins shine on stage, meet old friends, experience exciting science, and the beauty and hospitality of Japan ❤️❤️❤️ @isplore.bsky.social @uuplants.bsky.social

Huge thanks to the ISPLORE community for this award! Beyond the inspiring science in last few days, this is extra fuel to keep driving our low Oxygen research forward.
Phenomenal work by the organizers at Nagoya University.
See you in the UK for the next one! #ISPLORE2025JP

So happy to have presented my work on the epigenetic basis of flooding tolerance in plants #ISPLORE2025JP 🌱🌊

And what a fantastic edition of #ISPLORE2025JP it was! Really had a wonderful time discussing science, meeting old friends and making new and enjoying the local cuisine 🌱🍣

A heartfelt thanks to the ISPLORE community for an inspiring and thought-provoking week! My heart is full… already looking forward to the next conference in 2028. 🌱🧫

And that’s a wrap on #ISPLORE2025JN 🇯🇵 🌱 🫧

So proud of @rimchaudhury15.bsky.social for winning best oral presentation award at #ISPLORE2025JP 🥇🤗☔🌱

Enjoyed every bit #ISPLORE2024JP

Congratulations to all #ISPLORE2025JP Best Oral and Poster presentation winners. Very high quality of ECR talks this year!

Beautifully engaging and Ted-talk worthy lecture by the first Rens Voesenek awardee Ole Pedersen at #ISPLORE2025JP 🌱🌊 Ole contributed significantly to our community, including all his work on oxygen dynamics in plants, especially in the field (and ocean!).

@rsasidharan.bsky.social pays tribute to Rens Voesenek for his major contributions to our field and #plantscience in general. 🌱🌊 Inspiring anectdotes and life lessons from Rens, who was a mentor to many of us.

#ISPLORE2025JP is over.. but not before a comedy performance and closing ceremony by the organizers Mikio Nakazono and Moto Ashikari 😆

Thanks so much to all organisers and sponsors for making this edition possible. It was truly amazing!

Next edition reveal by @djgibbs.bsky.social: #ISPLORE2028UK

I don't have a background in hypoxia, but I enjoyed this meeting too much. I will definitely attend the next one in the UK. #ISPLORE2025JN

Incredible location ✅
Excellent science ✅
Amazing community ✅
Perfectly organised ✅

What more could we ask for!?

Safe travels to everyone!

After the coffee break we continue with #ISPLORE2025JP ECR talks of Simone Cestellana, Niels Eerdekens, Elmar van Wijk, Emma Olmi and Gyöngyi Macías-Honti 🌱☔🌊🌾

The baldcypress genome provides insights into the adaptive evolution of flooding stress tolerance The evolutionary history of gymnosperms suggests that most species struggle in wet environments. However, baldcypress (Taxodium distichum var. distichum) thrives in wetlands, making it a prime candi...

✨ Exciting week with researchers from #Kenya, #Ethiopia & #Palestine at our workshop “Breedtech”🌱
We’re diving into #genetics and #genomics tool, #agrobiodiversity & #environmental #DNA, learning and sharing ideas — and also enjoying the beauty of Pisa together! 🧬🌍

Around 20 of our #ISPLORE2025JP @isplore.bsky.social community members joined @bsky.app this week and are now added to our starter pack! Give them a follow to stay updated on all things hypoxia and flooding #plantscience 🌱🌾🌊☔

Very grateful that my team was represented by three talks at #isplore2025jp and two posters 🇯🇵🌱🫚

Another exciting #ISPLORE2025JP session with talks Fu-Chiun Hsu, Nico Dissmeyer and @ximenachirinos.bsky.social. Check out her preprint! @syno2xis.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Day 2 full of #plantscience is almost done, but not before almost 60 poster flash talks are done. 🤯 Everyone gets their 1 minute of fame at #ISPLORE2025JP 💃🕺

We continue this #ISPLORE2025JP session with talks of Livia Merendino on seedling emergence and @emilyflashman.bsky.social on PCO engineering. 🧑‍🔬 Check out the PCO preprint! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
