P.S. The #melon cultivar 'Piel de Sapo' (literally 'Toad Skin'), sometimes known as the Santa Claus melon or the Christmas melon, is a type of true melon (fam. #Cucurbitaceae, Cucumis melo, Indorous group) originating from Spain.

ARF3-mediated auxin signaling is essential for sex determination in cucumber Sex determination underpins genesis of male and female flowers with particularly important implications in plant breeding. Auxin and ethylene regulate femaleness in cucurbits. Here, we identified an a...

Auxin transport positions stem cells in the vascular cambium during normal development and regeneration | PNAS The vascular cambium contains bifacial stem cells producing secondary phloem in one and secondary xylem to the opposite direction. In Arabidopsis r...

By combining molecular genetics with cell-ablation experiments, we found that vascular cambium stem cells and xylem-identity cells form an interchangeable unit, a stem cell niche.

Scientists map part of a mouse's brain that's so complex it looks like a galaxy Thanks to a mouse watching clips from “The Matrix,” scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date.

A space for time. Exploring temporal regulation of plant development across spatial scales Developmental timing in plants is tightly regulated at the whole-organism scale, from germination to flowering. Less is known about when and how local transitions are temporally regulated. Not every ...

Our lab's first review article written with @yadhusankar.bsky.social and @vijayalakshmi.bsky.social is out now in The Plant Journal! 🎉🌱

We discuss temporal regulation of (plant) development. When and how do plants control organ and cell identity progression?

Role of a KNOX1 TF in stalling receptacle growth in cucumber, leading to bisexual flowers with superior ovaries like those in tomatoes.

Thank you, cause the link hasn't attached in my post

I'm not alone in joking about R2D2 #auxin sensor :)

P.S. Thank you to @robertboisivonlab.bsky.social for cool auxin perception infographics (boisivonlab.ceitec.cz/handouts/) and to @aribidopsis.bsky.social for the blog post 'R2D2: Auxin marker from Star Wars' (www.aribidopsis.com/2017/12/r2d2...)

What if we could stabilize expression of the RUBY reporter by replacement of P2A linkers just with long GS-linkers❓️ 🤔

The similar, three-enzyme system is well used in base editing: UGI-nCas9-nucleoside deaminase.
