Fran @frangordilloc.bsky.social and I wrote this piece on one of our favorite topics: the evolutionary relevance of co-receptors for immune receptor transfer in #plants 🌱
#EvoMPMI #MPMI

Check also the beautiful paper by Zhang et al. on the PRR STOMR and discover what happened to its co-receptor 😱

Thanks to everyone who joined the Trilateral ECR Symposium 2025 at @unil.bsky.social with colleagues from VIB Ghent and ENS Lyon 🌍 Such a great environment to connect across labs💡
Special shout-out to the amazing organizing committee, and especially @mathieugg.bsky.social for making it all happen !

I am thrilled to share the 2nd chapter of my PhD with @adsteinbrenner.bsky.social In collaboration with @tiszapatrick we demonstrated that the LRR-RLP INR is the missing molecular link between caterpillar recognition and predatory wasp recruitment in the field. A thread 1/6

The glutamate receptor‐like GLR2.7 modulates insect egg‐induced defense responses in Arabidopsis Upon perception of insect eggs, Arabidopsis thaliana activates a generic immune response that culminates in cell death (hypersensitive-like response (HR-like)). While this response can subsequently .....

How do plants detect insect eggs ? 🌱🦋
Our new paper on GLR2.7 and its role in plant defense responses to insect eggs is now out in @newphyt.bsky.social
Big thanks to the Reymond Lab @unil.bsky.social and our collaborators !

Research Associate in Programmable Plant Immunity at Imperial College London Apply for the Research Associate in Programmable Plant Immunity role on jobs.ac.uk, the top job board for academic positions in higher education. View details and apply now.

Plz RT. We are looking for a postdoc to join our collborative project on AI-guided bioengineering of plant immune receptors @tolgaboz.bsky.social and @jiorgoskourelis.bsky.social labs: www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DNV032/r...

🔥Postdoc opportunity 🌱

The Legris lab at the University of Neuchâtel 🇨🇭 is looking for a Postdoc to work on the regulation of branching by warm temperatures. If you have a background on plant physiology and development, and you're interested in shoot thermomorphogenesis, apply now!

Proud to present the first data paper from the lab, published today in @pnas.org.

We describe a new mechanism for CLE peptides as local symbiosis-amplifying signals, promoting plant interactions with beneficial arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.

Congratulations @sagarbashyal.bsky.social et al.!

Elemental cryo-imaging reveals SOS1-dependent vacuolar sodium accumulation - Nature This study demonstrates that cryo nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (CryoNanoSIMS) enables direct multi-elemental imaging at subcellular resolution of macro- and micronutrients or trace elemen...

Most plants can`t handle salt, but have evolved strategies to survive in it. How do they do it?🌱🧪

Excited to share some of our first insights using a new cryoelemental imaging technique to answer these questions at the subcellular scale!(1/8)
