Melbourne Plant Science Community! We have an opportunity to get together again for a seminar of Prof Christine Raines, a pioneer in genetic engineering of plants for improved photosynthesis and growth. Come on Feb 18, 10.30am to LaTrobe City Campus, room 2.15. Please repost & share with colleagues!

📢Preprint alert! We found a new PGRL1 paralog which evolved in grasses. Modelling suggests it has a distinct lumen-exposed region, compared to ‘conventional’ PGRL1, which could provide faster regulation of photoprotection. The two PGRL1s are expressed in different cell types in NADP-ME C4 grasses!
