How does a single plant cell tell symbiont from pathogen?
We show that the Symbiotic Determinant 1 of NFR1 evolved to facilitate nitrogen-fixing symbiotic signalling.
I’m thrilled to share our published data from my PhD back in Aarhus! #symbiosis #juxtamembrane #ensa

Two residues reprogram immunity receptors for nitrogen-fixing symbiosis - Nature
An investigation of plant receptor-like kinases identifies regions of these proteins that control whether immune or symbiotic signalling pathways are activated, with minimal changes to specific r...

This paper and resources on teaching CRISPR in plant biology are available for anyone who needs them! So glad to have completed this manuscript with 16 (!) graduate and undergraduate students in my class.

I had a wonderful time participating in the teach-the-teachers CRISPR course co-organized by Sonali Roy, held at the beautiful MIT campus. The participants were HBCU faculty & local high school biol teachers. Lectures in the morning and labs in the afternoon, thanks to Maxine & Masami. 👍👍🧬 #PlantSci

I've had a few questions about the Dec 6 @plantphys.bsky.social webinar on Root Development
blog.aspb.org/december-6-p...
It's being held at a time to accomodate the speakers, so not always convenient for participants. However, we always record webinars & post them to YouTube and blog ASAP!
