Protein surface chemistry encodes an adaptive tolerance to desiccation Desiccated cells lose over 85% of their water content and experience widespread biomolecular dysfunction. Romero-Pérez et al. show that the yeast proteome contains a subset of proteins that are desicc...

Fascinating study sheds light on dehydration tolerant proteins, which proteins tends to be more stable during dehydration-rehydration and more (*not in plants).

Gibberellin transport affects lateral root growth through HY5 in response to far-red light Gibberellin translocation from shoot to root conveys a plant-plant competition signal that leads to a reduction in lateral root growth.

My latest paper, a postdoc project of mine from the @ronaldpierik.bsky.social lab is finally out in the Plant Cell all its formatted glory! doi.org/10.1093/plce...
Many thanks also to my co-authors and especially Kyra van der Velde who did a lot of work.

Fig. 6 (shortened, full legend in paper): ABA signalling and GI act together to promoter CO recruitment to the FT promoter and regulate flowering time. (A) Boxplot of flowering time of the indicated genotypes and isogenic lines derived from the introgression of SUC2::HA:CO transgenes into aba1-6 or gi mutant backgrounds. Note that for the SUC2::HA:CO aba1-6 gi-100 combination, two sibling lines were analysed. An ANOVA test to assess the impact of mutations at the ABA1 and GI loci on leaf number at bolting was run separately for transgenic (SUC2::HA:CO) and control plants (vertical bar). For both groups, genotype was a statistically significant predictor of leaf number at bolting (P < 0.001). Letters at the top of boxplots indicate if genotypes showed statistically significant differences (P < 0.05) according to a Tukey post-hoc test. The number of samples analysed for each genotype is shown at the bottom of the graph.
