Dear planty people, what flowers have the coolest patterns on their petals?

I will start: Saxifraga rotundifolia

Diagrams illustrating the effect of GA, auxin, and a combination of them both on the expression of the poplar DELLA gene GIBBERELLIC ACID INSENSITIVE (PtoGAI), the expression of PIN1, and cambium regeneration.

Zhang et al. use in vitro SVT regeneration to show that gibberellin treatment significantly promotes auxin-induced cambium reestablishment in Populus. #PlantScience #Phytohormones

Hey, science folks of Bluesky! Addgene has announced that it is fully committing to leaving X. They are taking a hit in their social media visibility to do this, but they have good reasons (blog.addgene.org/addgene-is-s...), as many of us do. Please give them a follow: @addgene.bsky.social

schematic of root architecture and anatomy

Hello Bluesky !

I am Guillaume, an assistant professor i #plantscience between Belgium and Germany.

I study how #cereal #roots #architecture and #anatomy can contribute to better resilience and resistance to #drought events.

Enthusiastic about #openscience, #teaching and #scicomm

A STNG meme where Dr. Beverly Crusher defines "hot" as 1.9 million Kelvin, with text "Later:" and Capt. Picard orders Tea. Early Grey. Hot. The result is a plasma-hot cup of earl grey that blasts the captain into a skeleton. I'm not the original author, but for the life of me, I can't find who did create it first.

After a complicated morning, managed to get out in the desert. Gaining inspiration from the majestic saguaro: patience, persistence, resilience, steadiness…

This is amazing please share. I hereby release these images CC0 (creativecommons.org/public-domai...) to encourage more people to do so.

New secondary growth phenotype discovered in the lab "angry bird"

Contrary to my previous belief, root size doesn't seem to determine the number of xylem poles. Legume roots of different "thickness" can display 3 or 4 xylem poles. What could be the genetic basis (evo-devo) of different xylem pole numbers? #rootbiology #plantbiology

Hello!

JXB is now on Bluesky. Please reconnect if you knew us from Twitter.

Interested in the latest plant science research? Please give us a follow.

If you know another researcher who would like our botany posts, we would be grateful if you tag them in the comments below (if they wouldn't mind)!

A postdoc position (E13 TV-L 100%, 3 years) is available in the Evolution of Plant Signaling Lab at the ZMBP (Tübingen, Germany) to work on the regulation of receptor kinases in the green lineage. Using an evolutionary approach and diverse model species including Marchantia, we will characterise the role of these signaling pathways in plant immunity and development. We are looking for a highly motivated, curiosity-driven candidate with a PhD in plant molecular biology, and experience in molecular biology and biochemistry. Excellent writing and communication skills in English and teamwork abilities are required. Interested applicants should send a single PDF file to Isabel Monte (isabel.monte@zmbp.uni-tuebingen.de) comprising a motivation letter describing your research interests, an up-to-date CV, and names of two references before 31st October 2023. The position is immediately available, but the starting date is flexible (preferably by the end of 2023 or beginning 2024).

📢 Job alert! 👩‍🔬🌱🦠🧑‍🔬
