I am happy to present a, what I learned from our in-field to lab approach @barleymicrobreed.bsky.social -which #roottraits #rootphenotyping were informative in an approach across 3 countries (5 fields, Austria, Lebanon, Morocco) - and b, my long year interest of experimental design influences #root
Interested in root phenotyping in soil and in the dark? and in Copenhagen on Oct 2? @katarzynaretzer.bsky.social will give a seminar at @ucph.bsky.social PLEN at 11.00 in room M117 - stop by and see high-resolution imaging and multi-omics at work!

transcriptomics and hormonomics suggest that KIN10 links carbon availability with directional root growth by modulating metabolic and hormonal pathways, strong hints that its affecting auxin and jasmonate signaling
