Very proud to share our latest preprint: postdoc/LRSF fellow Yue Rui studies the mechanisms regulating attachment of the cell wall to the plasma membrane. The Cellulose Synthase Complex and REMORINs determine the extent of attachment and root osmotic stress tolerance. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

This is cool! Two different morphotypes of an Asteraceae weed growing next to each other in my garden.

Got a chance to finally visit the Arabidopsis Biological Resource Center (ABRC) at OSU, the most important source of Arabidopsis research materials fueling major discoveries in fundamental plant science and agriculture. We must fight to keep these centers vibrant!
