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 :)
How trees first arose from small plants and changed the world, and why new trees emerge.
Looking for a #postdoc? 📣We are #hiring📣 Join the Wallner Group @mpipz.bsky.social to work on tissue patterning, polarity & body axes formation with the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha.🌿 Apply now! #plantsci 👉https://jobs.mpipz.mpg.de/jobposting/54b1ba6d403b8a106f2595c1ef1171f8d729bb720?ref=homepage

Super excited to see Atlas of Botany in print!!!
A pleasure to work with the wonderful team from DK and the @thebotanics.bsky.social
I wrote the Ancient Biomes section covering some of my favourite stories about plant evolution from the last 500 million years! @instmolplantsci.bsky.social
Incredibly proud of this paper showing how plants couple vesicle delivery and phragmoplast expansion during division. This project started in the lab of the great and late Ian Moore, and it was a joy to finish it with @liamelliottplants.bsky.social et al!

Hi all,
Just a reminder that we're still accepting talk and poster abstracts for our Symposium Plant Paleoart: Perspectives and Promises, and the deadline is in two weeks, on the 31st May!
I'm really looking forward to seeing some of you there!!!

Cytokinesis is a key process in the development of multicellular organisms, through both formative and proliferative divisions. In land plants, successful cytokinesis requires precise targeting of Gol...

The paper is not online yet but it's too pretty not to show for this #FossilFriday: a new species of Keraphyton from the Late Devonian of Australia, part of the work of

This artwork was created last year for @jeremywyman.bsky.social and @sandyheth.bsky.social, to accompany their paper 'Comparative rhizotaxy of fossil and living isoetalean rhizomorphs reveals development through rootlet intercalation within a triangular lattice'.
