This is also in collaboration with the fabulous @ubechtold.bsky.social, benefitting from her supervision and Dr Prashar's to give a full view from bioinformatics, cell biology, development up to the crop in the field!

Elucidating tissue and sub-cellular specificity of the entire SUMO network reveals how stress responses are fine-tuned in a eukaryote SUMOylation is essential in plant and animal cells, but it remains unknown how SUMO components act in concert to modify specific targets in response to environmental stresses. In this study we charact...

We have submitted a pre-print to BioRxiv. It is describes SUMO post-translational modification in action in Arabidopsis roots. All components, their expression, protein abundance, behaviour under stress...! super proud of the team work. Send us comments! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Redox-regulated Aux/IAA multimerization modulates auxin responses Reactive oxygen species function as key signals in plant adaptation to environmental stresses like drought. Roots respond to transient water unavailability by temporarily ceasing branching through the...

I am happy to see exciting this collaboration between the Sadanandom lab (DU) and Bennett lab (UoN) finally published!

Necessity for modeling hormonal crosstalk in arabidopsis root development? Hormones play vital roles in plant root development. Mathematical models have been employed to study hormone functions. However, models developed by different research groups focus on different aspects of hormones and therefore cannot be used to study…
