Hey plant developmental biologists! Want to do great science with a great guy in a great place? @oconnord.bsky.social is looking for a postdoc to join his lab at Colorado State:

oconnorlab.colostate.edu/wp-content/u...

#devbio #plantscience #botany #bioimaging #microscopy

Enjoy the view! This is clearly the best ever science experience I have had emerging from fruitful collaboration with @ucalgary.bsky.social @tengzhanguh.bsky.social @helsinki.fi and funded by the Research Council of Finland

For sure! Flower evo-devo rocks! ;)

Congratulations Minya! Super nice to see how CYCs and DR5 are coordinated in the early stages! Can’t wait for more exciting works from your lab!

I’m proud to present the main work from my postdoc, 3+ years in making from scratch, my ultimate #MimulusPropaganda up till now:

The Moment
That
Symmetry
Breaks.

Happy to see this out and for the opportunity to contribute!! The puzzle of Asteraceae inflorescence development jumps one step forward (a big step 😅) 🌻

Floral innovation through modifications in stem cell peptide signaling. Understanding how evolution shapes genetic networks to create new developmental forms is a central question in biology. Flowering shoot (inflorescence) architecture varies significantly across plant f...

A new really exciting preprint from @thecapitulab.bsky.social, my PhD lab, and many others
One of the many interesting findings - The sequence evolution of CLV3 and changes to CLV signaling is required for capitulum development. CLEs make sunflowers!

Same here! Next summer seems more reasonable, maybe the flower workshop ;)?

Congratulations! Super nice logo!

The dynamic and diverse nature of parenchyma cells in the Arabidopsis root during secondary growth - Nature Plants A combination of lineage tracing and single-cell RNA sequencing reveals how xylem and phloem parenchyma cells in the secondary tissue of Arabidopsis root mature gradually. Upon root barrier injury, th...

It's out! Detailed transcriptome atlas of mature Arabidopsis root undergoing secondary growth. Fantastic work by Munan Lyu and Hiroyuki Iida + other lab members, wonderful collab with @bertderybel.bsky.social lab on the scRNAseq analysis. @treebiocoe.bsky.social 1/x www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Spatial cell clusters based on the expression of 99 genes analyzed by smFISH at three stages of wheat spike development.

Expression profiles of genes differentially expressed during spikelet development.

We’re excited to share our new preprint on wheat spike development! We used spatial transcriptomics and scRNA-seq to take a closer look at the different cell types and expression domains during key developmental stages of the wheat spike. Check it out here:

Please Repost! We are offering a three-year fully funded doctoral researcher position to study how floral meristem patterning in woodland strawberry, and how it implicates the diversification in floral ground plans in Angiosperm flowers. jobs.helsinki.fi/job/Helsini-...

The requirement for mobility is problematic at all levels of academia. Women, carers, people with disabilities and others are excluded because of exclusionary practices and attitudes.

Beautiful Brassicaceae fruit-shape diversity. And here we tell you (part of) how it’s done! rdcu.be/d3i8x
What a great collab it’s been! Thanks Yang Dong, @matmajda.bsky.social, Richard Smith and entire team. @natureplants.bsky.social @oxfordbiology.bsky.social @johninnescentre.bsky.social

Many thanks!
