Systemic and local regulation of root growth by vascular trehalose 6-phosphate is correlated with re-allocation of primary metabolites between shoots and roots https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.11.13.688188v1

So proud of my PhD student @hannahlepper.bsky.social talking about the roles of the important plant sugar signal trehalose 6-phosphate during land plant evolution 🍬🌿

Next, Hannah Lepper from @franzificht.bsky.social lab in Düsseldorf is investigating the enigmatic role of trehalose 6-phosphate during land plant evolution #MAdLand2025

🌱 Part 2 of Session 1: Beginnings & Roots

Moritz Göbel (Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf, Germany) presenting:
“Trehalose 6-phosphate regulates root growth by nutrient allocation towards sink tissues” 🌿

Abundant clock proteins point to missing regulation in the plant circadian clock www.embopress.org/doi/full/10.... first experimental determination of the abundance of transcription factors in Plants and for the circadian clock. It was such a challenge but finally out after peer review !!!

Proud to share TAPscan v4, automated annotation of 138 TF families; code, webtool and database available online.

We are still waiting for applications to join us as a group leader in the department of Chromosome Biology! Apply until the first of Feb.

Very cool new data.
A T6P phosphatase was identified as a potential regulator of heterodichogamy in walnut.
This study highlights how T6P can be hijacked to modulate plant development.

Check out our latest pre-print where we used our ASP-#SPARK #sensor to unveil #SnRK1's multifaceted role during #plant growth and #development! bit.ly/49JVZrY
Including real-time #spatiotemporal visualization of SnRK1 activity in a growing #Arabidopsis root! 😀
