Proud to present the first data paper from the lab, published today in @pnas.org.

We describe a new mechanism for CLE peptides as local symbiosis-amplifying signals, promoting plant interactions with beneficial arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.

Congratulations @sagarbashyal.bsky.social et al.!

We are recruiting postdocs for our new lab at the
Salk Institute

🌱 receptors, peptides, and signaling
🍄 plant-fungus interactions
🍀 symbiosis
🤩 great team and amazing views
