Today we heard the PhD progress update of @aroessling.bsky.social (from @kleinevehnlab.bsky.social). She is undoubtedly the best illustrator within DOMPS, making her talk on vacuoles, cell walls and FERONIA’s role in cell expansion very engaging.

How do plants elongate in shade? This morning @scourbier.bsky.social (from @plantphotobiology.bsky.social) revealed how shade boosts TOR activity and how TOR and auxin signalling tightly interact to drive hypocotyl growth in Arabidopsis. A talk that filled the room!

Stuck in the US as a postdoc due to the current political nightmare? Consider to join us in Freiburg @dompsfr.bsky.social @biologyunifreiburg.bsky.social #plantscience
If you know postdocs in the US whose work is restricted or becoming difficult, there are new fellowship possibilities in the south of Germany. Please, forward this information to them:

uni-freiburg.de/frias/call-f...

Our lab in Freiburg can also serve as a host — happy to discuss options.

Thanks a lot for inviting me @elkebarbez.bsky.social . It was really an exciting visit and I enjoyed it a lot to talk to old friends and get to know new people. Really a perfect day 🌱❣️
How do roots sense phosphate and iron? Discover the PDR2–LPR1 pathway with @cnaumann123.bsky.social (from @ipbhalle.bsky.social), and see how it links nutrient sensing to ER quality control and autophagy. Learn how roots adapt in Pi-poor, Fe-rich soils!

The Cell Wall as a Biophysical Gatekeeper of Iron Homeostasis in Plant Roots

Yesterday, Chenlu Liu (from the @elkebarbez.bsky.social group) revealed how dynamic cell wall charge regulates iron uptake in plant roots, acting as a reversible ion filter that shapes nutrient balance.

A question of death ☠️ and life 🧬

Yesterday we hosted @moritznowack.bsky.social (from Ghent University and @viblifesciences.bsky.social), their research on root caps uncovers the gene regulatory and molecular mechanisms coordinating differentiation with developmentally programmed cell death.
