not the legal way.
Contact the authors, i got a quick positive response.

That would infringe patents. I contacted the authors meanwhile, and they are helpful to find a way how you can use the device.

sorry that was before you mailed to me.
i deleted the post already.

great story!

Plants monitor the integrity of their barrier by sensing gas diffusion - Nature A study using Arabidopsis shows that plants can monitor the integrity of their outer barriers by sensing gas diffusion, enabling them to initiate wound repair to prevent water loss and pathogen entry.

How plants sense injury in their barrier tissue, periderm? Painstakingly detailed and amazing work by post doc Hiroyuki Iida shows that wounding is sensed by the diffusion of two gases: ethylene and oxygen. @treebiocoe.bsky.social‬ @erc.europa.eu‬ 1/x 🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

However, if you cannot get enough of Cereal Stem Cells, join us at a cool conference in charming Regensburg later this year!

Scheme of meristem development in maize embryos, highlighting the expression domains of key regulatory genes.

The Cereal Stem Cell Systems Consortium published a comprehensive review in Plant Cell on how meristems shape cereal architecture.
If you are not a fan of cereals except for breakfast, your teaching will still benefit from the amazing figures!

IBH Seminar: BARVISTA. Cell-resolved transcriptomics & gene expression imputation uncovers barley gene regulatory networks - Barley Hub IBH 2025 series of seminars: 'BARVISTA. Cell-resolved transcriptomics & gene expression imputation uncovers barley gene regulatory networks'

Here is a link to the seminar series organised by the International Barley Hub, at James Hutton Institute. This is a recording of an online seminar, where I explained the approach we used and some applications to developmental questions.
barleyhub.org/ibh-seminar-...

I think this can be easily extended and applied to other plant species. Or are you asking if the expression patterns reported in BARVISTA for barley can be used to deduce expression patterns for related genes in other cereals?

Excited to see our work finally out! 🌾🏴‍☠️
We show how HvCLV1 and HvFCP1 shape barley inflorescence using innovative techniques and some cool microscopy.
Huge thanks to everyone involved in this study!
