Please repost: BBSRC funded PhD opportunity. Please get in touch for further project info. www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

Great opportunity for a protein biochemist to work with Hannes, myself and Steve Renshaw as part of a collaborative team. Please repost and apply!

*New #Job Alert * Suited for a hashtag#cell biologist interested in #membranes, vesicle trafficking or ion transport! to join my laboratory @karniklab.bsky.social within @uofglasgow.bsky.social vibrant research community! #Plantsci #researchjobs www.jobs.gla.ac.uk/job/research...

Very excited to see this paper out! Huge congrats to @chloe-beaulieu.bsky.social, @pierremarcdelaux.bsky.social, and all other authors. The Marchantia pangenome has already shown itself to be a great resource for the Marchantia community!

Who knew that some guard cells are joined? nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Immensely proud of Heather and @yang-brassicaceae.bsky.social for having led this work from conception to publication, connecting non-canonical ETT-mediated auxin signalling with canonical auxin signalling in #Arabidopsis and #Capsella @dev-journal.bsky.social

Hi all!!! 👋 New to Bluesky, but... I'm hiring a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at The Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg... www.verwaltung.uni-halle.de/dezern3/Auss... Please repost if you can!! Thank you!!!

Applications are *OPEN* for our 2025 Summer Studentships! Great opportunity for undergrads to gain invaluable experience in #microscopy Find out more: rms.org.uk/resource/app... @yorkbioimaging.bsky.social @rmsearlycareer.bsky.social @bioimaginguk.bsky.social

Dear #plantsci community, PLEASE HELP or RT! We are looking for a leaf specific promoter for a tissue specific CRISPR experiment in Arabidopsis. Any suggestions?

I have a PAID 6 weeks undergraduate summer internship in my lab. You'll use #FRET #biosensors, #confocal #microscopes, and #RaspberryPi to try to discover how low humidity affects leaf development. @sheffieldpps.bsky.social @rmsearlycareer.bsky.social Project 5: www.rms.org.uk/community/ne...

Answering the call of @haesleinhuepf.bsky.social, Christian Tischer, Pete Bankhead, @kbias.bsky.social @bethcimini.bsky.social My Fiji training notes are now FAIR. All online in an open format to download and use for teaching and training. All in Google Doc or PDF formats bit.ly/4hkfEBF

Deadline approaching! Submit your abstracts for our call for papers on #stomata: https://www.newphytologist.org/news/view/353 Deadline: 14 February 2025 #PlantScience

Did you know there is a great database of diverse plant scientists created and maintained by @naascarabidopsis.bsky.social? 🌱 Fantastic resource for inviting speakers, reviewers, and applications! #PlantScience 🧪 #academicsky rdale1.shinyapps.io/diversifypla...

The modes of action of ABA receptors is definitely not in an evolutionary stasis! I like how this paper shows that 🌱 evolution is a super dynamic process. 🔽 @currentbiology.bsky.social @jandevries.bsky.social (and others I can't find on bsky!) www.cell.com/current-biol...

📜 A DOF transcriptional repressor-gibberellin feedback loop plays a crucial role in modulating light-independent seed germination 🧑‍🔬 Andrea Lepri, Hira Kazmi, @raffolab.bsky.social, Paola Vittorioso, et al. #️⃣ Plant Communications 🔗 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #️⃣ #PlantScience

We just released and uploaded a new version of *Mastodon*, the large-scale tracking and track-editing framework for large, multi-view images. Mastodon is available via Fiji, via a dedicated update site. mastodon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/do... Below is a thread that survey some of the novelties ⏬️

The #biovoxxel figure tools provide a convenient way in saving SVG vector graphic from Fiji and create publication figures in Inkscape. Thanks to Ved Sharma those SVGs can now also be opened in the browser and even in Adobe Illustrator, if you really have to use it (I won't blame you 😉)

Alright so to brighten the mood... Who's ready for another iteration of 28 Days, 28 Black Plant Scientists/Botanists? 💪🏾🌱 For those that want more background here's a link from last yr. While I search through names myself, I'm happy to hear any nominations via DM/email! plantae.org/2024-black-h...

If you are interested in plant stem cell systems, meristems and development of cereals: We are organising an international symposium on "Cereal Meristems and Stem Cell Systems", see attached announcement. www.cscs2025.de for more details

Mainly presenting the great work of @drosborneplantsci.bsky.social et al., showing a role for VRN2-PRC2 in facilitating light-triggered repression of PIF signalling to control cell growth. Paper out soon! 🌱💡

Undergraduate students can now apply to our Summer Studentship scheme, supported by @theplantjournal.bsky.social and the Gatsby Foundation. For more information, head to our website: blackinplantscience.org/2025/01/17/b...

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) www.nature.com/articles/s41... @nature.com #PlantScience
