Our study on the effect of strigolactone signaling on vessel formation and water usage is now peer reviewed: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Great achievement of Jiao Zhao, Dongbo Shi, Kiara Kaeufer, and everybody involved!
Vessel elements arise from cambium stem cells and support plant growth by supplying water and nutrients. This study reveals that strigolactone signalling inhibits vessel formation in response to droug...
A light-induced apical auxin signalling minimum marks the site of organogenesis and de novo meristem formation in Marchantia sporelings (now peer-reviewed): authors.elsevier.com/a/1mDc83QW8S...
We discovered that light and an apical auxin minimum are required for development of the first flat body structure (the prothallus) and positioning of the first meristem in Marchantia sporelings - now preprinted:

Shoutout to yesterday’s guest @eswallner.bsky.social, who visited us from @gmivienna.bsky.social for her talk “Lessons from sporeling development: How to form plant organs and meristems de novo?” - fascinating perspective on plant development!🌱
Thanks as well to @thevirusmc.bsky.social for hosting 🙏

Happy to announce that I have started my own research group at the MPIPZ and that I am looking for a postdoc who would like to investigate Marchantia prothallus development with me! Please spread the word and/or apply if interested :)
