Gene editing to enhance photosynthesis in crop plants offers a strategy to boost plant carbon capture and mitigate climate change. A Review in Nature Reviews Bioengineering explores the challenges in engineering photosynthesis for carbon sequestration. đź”’
First greenhouse screening of the #MultiStress @dfg.de RU to select the six Kenyan genotypes. Thanks Issaka Abdulai for organizing such huge experiment @uni-goettingen.de & Irsa Eyza for joining the above-ground team. First harvest is nearly completed & we look forward to our first exciting results!
Wie der Herr…
Die AfD in Berlin plant quasi BĂĽrgerwehren, um in der Ă–ffentlichkeit marginalisierte Menschen und Andersdenkende zu schikanieren.
Wie lange darf sich eine NSdAP-Kopie noch am Busen der Demokratie laben, um diese abzuschaffen?
Wann endlich landen solch umstürzlerischen Menschenfeinde im Gefängnis?
In parallel to #root harvest: non-destructive #mucilage sampling:
@withanage.bsky.social of @unituebingen.bsky.social targets #BNF of #maize mucilage, supportee by Akila Chandima in his Bachelor thesis.
Crossing fingers that the amount of mucilage will be sufficient for mol-bio and trait analysis đź’Ş

Our SP1 - belowground team of @unituebingen.bsky.social is busy performing root washing: @stevensenanabulya.bsky.social - PhD student funded by @daadworldwide.bsky.social planned all steps, guided by Osman M. & supported by Pupudu R. (M.Sc.). Thanks to all helpers (Rozy, Henrik, Prashanth & Paula)!
Gene editing to enhance photosynthesis in crop plants offers a strategy to boost plant carbon capture and mitigate climate change. This Review explores the agronomic, molecular and technical challenges in engineering photosynthesis for carbon sequestration as well as the genetic tools and editing technologies that can improve plant productivity and carbon storage.
Interesting results and inspires us to think why the fungi has more resistance to drought than bacteria

Three genotypes – a heat-resistant maize (Zea mays), a heat-susceptible maize, and a sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) variety – were grown to the V4 stage in growth chambers under optimal conditions or subj...
Synthesis and applications. Our findings provide a unifying framework for understanding how transient microbial invasions generate lasting ecological imbalances, cascading from community structure to....

🌱 Recent study reveals how drought & climate conditions interact to shape plant-microbe dynamics across compartments in two ecologically contrasting grass species, highlighting species-specific microbiome responses.
