I'm recruiting a post doc and a research assistant for a 30 month project “ZHOUPI genes, cell death and the evolution of plant endosperm” funded by a Research Project grant from the Leverhulme Trust @Leverhulme.ac.uk. Application details are on the Opportunities page at biology.ed.ac.uk/goodrich

In analogy to water conducting cells in vascular plants' xylem, cell wall reinforcements and programmed cell death are used to facilitate water transport in Marchantia pegged rhizoids. An amazing paradigm of convergent evolution in land plants! More here:
