Powerful new protocol from @kathschiessl.bsky.social's lab to trigger & visualise earliest stages of symbiotic root nodule formation in Medicago truncatula — no genetic reporters needed means broad species application! Protocol: doi.org/10.1016/j.xp... Summary: www.slcu.cam.ac.uk/news/new-pro...

Graphical abstract that visually shows the workflow with photos of each step. The steps show the plant growth and bacterial growth steps:
1. Preparation of rhizobia and seedlings for spot inoculation.
2. Root zone marking and precise bacterial droplet application.
3. Incubation in EdU medium to label DNA replication.
4. Sample fixation and replicated DNA labelling
5. Tissue clearing and cell wall staining

The Rowe lab is recruiting a #PlantScience PhD student for 2025! You'll use our new ABACUS FRET biosensors to map the leaf #AbscisicAcid accumulations at low humidity in Arabidopsis, wheat and rice to understand how ABA regulates stomatal dynamics. #PhDposition www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

A grey coloured Arabidopsis leaf epidermis, with black cell walls. Each cells has a colourful blobs - a nuclear localised fluorescent ABA sensor, with warm colours indicating high concentrations, and cooler colours indicating lower concentrations.

We are delighted to announce that Katharina Schiessl will head a new research group at @slcuplants focused on understanding how organ diversity of plants can be reshaped by their colonisers - plant #galls and root #nodules! Read about her exciting research plans www.slcu.cam.ac.uk/news/dr-kath...

Using genome-scale and developmental genetic approaches, Katharina Schiessl (pictured) will characterise the regulatory pathways and cellular processes that underpin the initiation and differentiation of root-related organs associated with the accommodation of beneficial nitrogen-fixing bacteria and parasitic root knot nematodes.
