So proud to share our latest publication @CellCellPress! Yue Rui reveals that the same enzyme that makes the wall, cellulose synthase complex (CESA), also tethers the plasma membrane to the wall during water-deficit stress, providing resilience. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Plants and animals evolve radically different body plans.
Do they also operate under fundamentally different molecular evolutionary constraints during organ formation?

Join us at the Early Career Plant Researchers Network Meeting!
Calling all experienced PhD students and postdocs in plant research.
- Slow drying accelerates desiccation tolerance (DT) and maturation🌱
- Fast drying triggers defense-like responses (with costs for longevity)🚫
- Distinct drying regimes → distinct transcriptional & RNA decay programs🔁
- Many responses appear largely ABA-independent❗️
Have you ever caught yourself awake at night thinking: “If water is essential for life, how can seeds survive losing almost all of it?” 💦🚫🌱
Good news! In our new preprint, we start to uncover some answers 👉🏾 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
