1/🚨 New preprint alert! Can mutualists and pathogens co-colonise the same living plant cell and what does that do to the plant membranes that surround these microbes?

Excitingly, we also made it on the cover of the current issue of @theplantjournal.bsky.social with some of my #microscopy images checking for #immunofluorescence signal of FLAG-tagged cytochrome c6A in #chlamydomonas!

Intracellular pathogens can form extensive hyphal structures. Here, the pathogen Phytophthora palmivora (magenta) produces invasive hyphae in a living epidermal cell of a Nicotiana root. The plant surrounds the invader by an 'extra-invasive hyphal membrane' (yellow)📸 @alexguyon.bsky.social

Great to see this out in the wild now!
Read & RP. New preprint by Alex Gavrin from his time in our team - Inactivation of Medicago Glucan binding protein 1 (GBP1) offers: An approach to enhance symbiotic nitrogen fixation.
