Very happy to see this review by @elizavveen.bsky.social, Jesse Küpers and myself now out in Plant Cell & Environment! About how stresses impact chloroplasts, and how this can steer plant development via retrograde signaling 🌱 @pph-wur.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/pce.15664

Our research published in @newphyt.bsky.social titled "Unravelling the dynamics of seed‐stored mRNAs during seed priming" (nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....) explores how hydropriming affects mRNA dynamics, enhancing germination but reducing longevity. Thanks to all my co-authors!

Unravelling the dynamics of seed‐stored mRNAs during seed priming
Seed priming is a pre-sowing treatment that enables more efficient and uniform seed germination; however, it negatively affects seed longevity. In this work, the mRNA dynamics underlying a hydroprim...
