Conservation and divergence of UVR8-COP1/SPA-HY5 signaling in UV-B responses of Marchantia polymorpha
Ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B) poses a major challenge to all forms of plant life. The liverwort Marchantia polymorpha (Marchantia) serves as a key model organism to study signaling pathways and to in...
Happy to share this work we did together with @yuankeliang.bsky.social in @romanulm.bsky.social lab. We looked in detail at UVR8-mediated UV-B signaling in Marchantia and found some conserved functions but also a few surprises! #plantscience #marchantia #UVR8

Emergence of isochorismate-based salicylic acid biosynthesis within Brassicales | PNAS
Salicylic acid (SA) is a major defense phytohormone. In Arabidopsis thaliana, the
isochorismate (IC) pathway is the primary route for pathogen-indu...
I'm very happy that this paper is now published in PNAS!
Isochorismate-based salicylic acid biosynthesis appears to have emerged in the Brassicales after the divergence of C. papaya, likely within the timeframe between the divergence of B. maritima and R. odorata.
