Very happy to see this review by @elizavveen.bsky.social, Jesse Küpers and myself now out in Plant Cell & Environment! About how stresses impact chloroplasts, and how this can steer plant development via retrograde signaling 🌱 @pph-wur.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/pce.15664
Plastids in a Pinch: Coordinating Stress and Developmental Responses Through Retrograde Signalling
Plastids can sense environmental stress and improve whole plant adaptation through retrograde communication to the nucleus. Recent studies have advanced our understanding of integrated canonical and ...

Our research published in @newphyt.bsky.social titled "Unravelling the dynamics of seed‐stored mRNAs during seed priming" (nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....) explores how hydropriming affects mRNA dynamics, enhancing germination but reducing longevity. Thanks to all my co-authors!
Unravelling the dynamics of seed‐stored mRNAs during seed priming
Seed priming is a pre-sowing treatment that enables more efficient and uniform seed germination; however, it negatively affects seed longevity. In this work, the mRNA dynamics underlying a hydroprim...

How do potato cultivars cope with salt stress? With Rumyana Karlova (PPH-WUR) we are glad to share that our paper investigating potato plants' response to salt stress is out www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... ! with @pph-wur.bsky.social @christatesterink.bsky.social
Potato cultivars use distinct mechanisms for salt stress acclimation
Soil salinity induces osmotic stress and ion toxicity in plants, detrimentally affecting their growth. Potato (Solanum tuberosum) suffers yield reduct…

And.... the story is now out in PNAS, greatly improved with new data since the pre-print, so check it out and find out how ABA plays an unexpected role in root responses to salinity. @pph-wur.bsky.social @w-u-r.bsky.social
