New preprint from the lab. We mapped the dynamics of phospholipids during lateral root formation and show that PI(4,5)P₂ plays a key role: targeted reduction in pericycle promotes LR development.

Thrilled to see our review published in Current Opinion in Plant Biology! 🌱✨
With @camilagoldy.bsky.social, Mariana Sotelo and Virginia Barrera, we discuss how cell biology and gene regulatory networks shape root cell expansion & plasticity.

Cell biology features and gene expression programs modulating cell expansion during root organ growth
Diffuse cell expansion mainly in the longitudinal axis of the organ significantly contributes to root organ growth. Root cell expansion is a diverse, …

Ever heard of bacteria EDITING themselves? 🦠🔧🧬
We’re thrilled to share our latest #IGMB paper! 🎉
Soybean inoculant bacteria naturally edit their own DNA—no lab needed! 😲 What does that mean for regulation? ⚖

Does the smell and flavor of strawberries depend on variations in gene-associated transposons? It seems so! Check out our new preprint! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Naturally occurring variation in gene-associated transposable elements impacts gene expression and phenotypic diversity in woodland strawberry
Transposable elements (TEs) constitute a major portion of plant genomes and play key roles in shaping genome architecture, regulating gene expression, and driving genome evolution. In this study, we g...
