I would like to express a recombinase in the germ line of #Arabidopsis for a short time. Can somebody recommend a promoter? Egg cell might make most sense? Needs to be weak as I am looking for incomplete recombination #plantscience #generegulation

This conference looks like a fabulous opportunity to rethink concepts. I’d be most interested in the role of noise in regulation. Alas I am teaching.

Everyone is talking about how science bluesky is taking off. So I am back on social media. Also, maybe not quite coincidentally, I am also back in other ways. Just got notice that our Future proofing plants application was funded by @dfgpublic.bsky.social

Boron response in oilseed rape. The connection to defense responses surprised me. I’d shed my flowers, too, if I thought they carried a pathogen. This one took a long time, very proud that Bart Verwaaijen saw it through! Great collab with the Bienert lab. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

@donat.bsky.social handed his thesis in. The last one of the first round of PhDs to hand in. A few more papers to go. And then I only see them at conferences and - hopefully - reunions. Onwards!

Fabulous work! A highland teosinthe introgression. I’d never guessed that. I especially like the ancient sample data addition. (And the structured abstract is really easy to read and understand, so I highly recommend opening the link posted below).

“may be surprisingly malleable, even on ecological timescales” Gene regulation as a quantitative trait with precise description. Fascinating read.

I have wondered about how different N-sources affect increases in carbon assimilation. Still wonder about the mechanism but this at least is a fact - in wheat. Arabidopsis fertilization with ammonia or nitrate or mix in high CO2 chambers. Did anyone do that already? #plantscience

Andrea Bräutigam @andreabraeutigam.bsky.social · 21/11/2023

And here is one of them. We model gene regulatory networks, compare them and analyze evolution of photosynthesis. By comparing multiple networks we find high confidence regulators for photosynthesis (or any pathway you care to study really); @donat.bsky.social again www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

For the record, having two grant applications due, two manuscripts to edit, and challenging discussions among faculty on the same day is a bit too much. And the sun is out for the first (and likely last) time in weeks. Oh well. I still love my job.

Based on the abstract, this looks great. Need to read and need to re-analyze the underlying data. I wonder how our photosynthetic TFs behave … #plantscience

This looks really helpful for newly sequenced genomes (of which we have a few still to analyze). Congrats @weberlab.bsky.social members who were involved!
