(1/17) We are excited to share the Ashraf and Gallagher labs collaboration on cell cycle regulation during environmental stress recovery in Arabidopsis, Brachypodium, and ryegrass.

My student, Thea, got the @aspbofficial.bsky.social ASPB SURF for summer 2025 to work with us at @ubcbotany.bsky.social @ubcbotany.bsky.social UBC! She also got NSERC USRA this year! Thanks to Olivia @ohazel.bsky.social for mentoring Thea. Congratulations 🍀🔬😊 What an achievement!

🧪🌱Preprint: "Regulation of vacuole fusion, a pivotal mechanism mitigating salt-induced inhibition of root cell growth" It shows that low-salt stress inhibits vacuole fusion, but may serve as a protective mechanism! 📜Betz et al., 2025 dx.doi.org/10.21203/rs.... #PlantSciences

(b’-b’’) Magnification of (Fig1.a), highlighting vacuole convolution in the medial plane. (c-c "”) 3D projections of YFP-VAMP711 at 0 mM (c") or 75 mM NaCl (c""), showing how a full reconstruction can mask vacuole convolution.

Regulation of vacuole fusion, a pivotal mechanism mitigating salt-induced inhibition of root cell growth
Vacuoles are essential for plant growth and morphogenesis. Vacuoles fused under normal conditions, promoting cell elongation and organ growth. Changes in vacuole dynamics affect root growth, but how t...

(1/5) – I am very excited to share our publication in QPB with @aribidopsis.bsky.social ! Before working with Arif, I thought I knew at least the basics about the plant cell cycle, but shortly I realized that I knew almost nothing. If this sounds relatable at all, then this review is for you!

I have to participate (show off) - introducing my Mimulus mutant seedling #mimuluspropaganda
Left is a pic of Peashooter from plants vs zombie, right is my mutant mimulus seeding that looks almost exactly the same as the peashooter, and there were two dots of dirt on the fused cotyledons which made them look like eyes

Another successful semester of organizing Microscopy Monday! This semester, the heavy lifting was done by Olivia @ohazel.bsky.social for co-organizing each sessions. We are grateful to amazing speakers and cell biologists to contribute to the Microscopy Monday workshop series.

Yesterday was our last Microscopy Monday of the fall semester! We were very thankful and lucky to have @fisherke.bsky.social lead a wonderful session covering considerations for electron microscopy 🔬🦠🩷 #Microscopy_Monday_Howard_University
