Happy to share our latest article in @newphyt.bsky.social. We look at the impacts of high atmospheric CO2, heatwaves, nitrogen fertiliser and drought on #wheat stomatal performance, photosynthesis, water usage and yield. @drhollycroft.bsky.social nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

A schematic representation of the key findings of our latest study show how heatwaves override most environmental responses we tested in our study.

Today at SEB 2025, we have an exciting #LICOR workshop looking at plant gas exchange across scales🌿🌾💦🌏. Environmental scientist Ian Smillie will introduce cutting-edge technologies that enable leaf to ecosystem level measuring of plant performance. #photosynthesis #stomata @sebiology.bsky.social

Day 1 of SEB 2025 in Antwerp. What a great venue 🏛🦁! It was real pleasure to be part of the P3 PEPG session looking at plant #photosynthesis this morning alongside speakers including @oulaghannoum.bsky.social. From now, time to enjoy the afternoon talks. @sebiology.bsky.social

Really looking forward to SEB 2025 in Antwerp this week. A really interesting #photosynthesis session tomorrow, followed by a #stomata session on Wednesday (I'll be co-chairing with @casparchater.bsky.social). Then on Thursday, #LICOR have a gas exchange workshop. @sebiology.bsky.social

Happy to share details of an online seminar I'll be taking part in tomorrow where I'll discuss #stomata. This will include evolution, biotechnology and "sensing" of stomata (including drone data capture). It's an early start, from 7.30am UK time - so don't forget to grab coffee ☕️. Login details 👇

If you want to present your latest #stomata research at SEB 2025, there are only 4 days until the submission deadline(7th of March)!! Excitingly, @casparchater.bsky.social and I can now also announce a brand new Workshop focused on measuring gas exchange across scales with @li-corenv.bsky.social👇👇

Really glad to finally share this work. The first research conducted with @drhollycroft.bsky.social, in collaboration with ADAS UK. We used #optical and #thermal data from #drones together with ground measurements to map #wheat🌾 traits and fluxes. @sheffieldpps.bsky.social doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Only 2 weeks to go until the deadline for talk and poster abstracts for SEB 2025. @casparchater.bsky.social and I are really looking forward to hosting keynotes @proftlawson.bsky.social, Dr John Ferguson and Dr Lorna McAusland for a session on #stomata and #crops. @sebiology.bsky.social Please RT!!

Well, this is exciting, a first ever foray into 🌳 stomata. First up, the "living fossil" Ginkgo biloba, and the tulip tree 🌷Magnolia soulangeana. Can't wait! @drhollycroft.bsky.social

1/4 Delighted to share our latest preprint "Future heatwave conditions inhibit CO2-induced stomatal closure in wheat". We found that high CO2, high VPD heatwave treatment prevents stomatal responses to light, super-elevated CO2 and nitrogen fertiliser application. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

New paper alert 🥳. Just published in Plant, Cell and Environment, we (with co-first author Muhammad S Khan) have used hyperspectral leaf data to enhance transpiration modelling during abiotic stress. @drhollycroft.bsky.social 🌾🛰💧 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/RBVKS2...
