Proud and happy to have contributed to the Arabidopsis thaliana genome reannotation as the only scientist from the Czech Republic. Accurate annotation of model plants like Arabidopsis is essential for advancing plant biology, functional genomics, and future crop research. 🌿 @iebcas.bsky.social

Doing the periodic cleaning of used plasmid miniprep columns and realized in honor of Earth Day it may be worth reminding you molecular biologists:
Plasmid miniprep columns can be cleaned and reused essentially indefinitely! Just add 1 M HCl, soak overnight and wash 3x w/ water. Save $ and plastic
It was a lifetime experience to see the "northern lights" in Olomouc, especially through a microscope above an Arabidopsis root. 🌌🌱😄
📢We are pleased to welcome Tereza Kratochvílová to our team. She will be Eva's @evadt.bsky.social first Ph.D. student, working primarily on the role of SUMO signaling in DNA damage sites. 🧬
We hope Tereza enjoys her time here and does well.

This week, Jana, Manuel, Ahel, and Peter participated in the Young Researchers Meeting (YRM) at the IEB 2026 conference @iebcas.bsky.social, where they presented their research.
Our group is attending the Plant Genome Stability and Change Meeting 2026 at Wuhan ! ☘️
Ales (@apecinka.bsky.social) gave a talk on how condensin mediates resistance to genotoxic stress, and Eva(@evadt.bsky.social) presented her research on the role of SUMOylation in DNA-protein cross link repair.

Nope. The only right use for them are these special holders for barley seedlings for our new Spinning Disc Confocal Microscopy from @the.3i.social !🔬
This is just one of the many ingenious holders Peter engineered for imaging happy barley seedlings!🌾

Condensin II mediates resistance to genotoxic stress and prevents mitotic defects in Arabidopsis (Jovanka Vladejić , Klara Prochazkova , et al) doi.org/10.1093/plph... #PlantScience @aspbofficial
Scientists like Eva Dvořák Tomaštíková of the Czech Academy of Sciences chose to contribute to this work for the benefit of science. A. thaliana is key to understanding plant genetics, with implicatio...
A forward-directed screen revealed that Condensin II prevents formation of mitotic anaphase bridges and maintains genome stability under genotoxic stress i
Why did researchers choose to volunteer their time to reannotate the Arabidopsis thaliana genome? It's value to the community🌾🧪🌱
