Very proud of that one and very proud of @victorsmh6.bsky.social, @marintianava.bsky.social and Anita Bianchi for their amazing achievement! A must read for all selective autophagy afficinados 🍽️🪴
Finally, research led by @victorsmh6.bsky.social, @marintianava.bsky.social & Anita Bianchi from the Dagdas lab identified CESAR, a key player in plant stress response via selective autophagy. The study was published in Developmental Cell. www.oeaw.ac.at/gmi/detail/n...
How Plants Survive Heat: New Protein for Stress Resistance Discovered
Researchers identify a new key protein involved in removing damaged proteins in plants. This could help make plants more resilient in the face of climate change.

Preprint alert! It is my great pleasure to announce the first manuscript from the lab, a story that started @gmivienna.bsky.social and was mainly accomplished by the intrepid @gesahoffmann.bsky.social at @mpi-mp-potsdam.bsky.social. A brief thread with our findings

We are looking far and wide for this position! So if you are motivated, interested in academia, and want to explore the world of plant-virus interaction, we are ALSO happy to host you for a PhD! More detail below🔽☘️🦠

Glad to have this finally published: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... lots of new data since the #preprint. If you are into selective #autophagy, #evolution, #proteostasis Please have a look!

Think vacuoles are just plant cell dumpsters? Think again.
They sense. They signal. They reshape. They fight back! ⚔️
Vacuoles are emerging as central hubs for plant resilience and adaptation. 🌱
@plantophagy.bsky.social and I unpack it all in our new review. Check it out!

1/ Transposable elements are often called "jumping genes" because they mobilize within genomes. 🧬
But did you know they can also jump 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘯 cells? 🤯
Our new study reveals how retrotransposons invade the germline directly from somatic cells.
