Have you seen their “bees on sticks”? It’s an efficient way to cross pollinate plants and used in plant space experiments! 🤯 #PlantBio2025

Really engaging talk by @kcox-bioguy.bsky.social in the Single Cell transcriptomics and spatial session today at #PlantBio2025 . A lot of exciting technologies and research underway in his lab and I think I am convinced duckweed is my new fav 🦆 🌱

Fantastic plenary session of @aspbofficial.bsky.social #PlantBio2025 to kick off the meeting yesterday. From connecting back to the community to networks in leaf morphology, certainly a science knowledge feast! Looking forward to day 2!

It was an absolute pleasure to hear John Kilmartin - one of the major scientist behind the CO2 transport in Haemoglobin (did not know they used horse haemoglobin) and the Bohr effect- on his scientific journey in the “Life of PI” seminar series. Now the key lessons of high school biology 🧪 🧫

The aroma of jasmine rice is due to 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline. In a GWAS study, a WKRY TF was found to enhance rice aroma by repressing the expression of an aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH2) that modifies 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline. Interesting example of double repression. From: www.cell.com/molecular-pl...

Chemical structure of 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline.
