Can we rewire plants to keep fixing nitrogen in the heat? Our new preprint explores a critical challenge for climate-resilient agriculture: heat-induced failure of legume-rhizobium symbiosis. @jeanmichelane.bsky.social @sairamnagalla.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Rewiring systemic nodulation control to engineer heat-tolerant nitrogen fixation in Medicago truncatula and chickpea
Root nodule symbiosis allows legumes to meet their nitrogen requirements. However, the causes of symbiosis failure at high temperatures remain unknown. We demonstrated that elevated temperatures affec...

For years, nucleoporins of the NUP107-160 complex were known to be essential for legume symbiosis, but the underlying mechanism remained unclear. Our work shows that NUP133, NUP85, and NENA regulate the localization of key symbiotic ion channels (DMI1/Pollux) to the inner nuclear membrane.

I won the FIRST place in the flash talk competition at #GLPSC2025 🍀 I must admit, it was unexpected because this was my first flash talk and let me tell you; explaining what you do in 3 minutes is not easy! Thanks to organizers of #GLPSC2025 for the opportunity to share my work on 🌱 and space 🛰️
