Diet-regulated transcriptional plasticity of plant parasites in plant–mutualist environments | PNAS
Crop pathogens often lack exclusive access to their host and must interact with plants
concurrently engaged with numerous other symbionts. Here, we...

Only a few days left to apply for this paid vacation studentship investigating how potato cyst nematodes protect themselves from stress during dormancy. Closing date for applications 14th April. bsky.app/profile/urwi...
BSPP-funded summer studentship available in the lab. See the link for more details: www.bspp.org.uk/mechanisms-u...
The start date can be flexible to suit the student. Please share with any interested undergraduates.

Paper Alert! @pnas.org
We think nematodes break open plant cells, sense small molecule signals (termed effectostimulins), which switch on a master regulator SUGR1, which switches on effectors, which break cells.
Looks like a feed-forward loop driving infection.

Very excited to see my first first-authored paper published in @pnas.org . We found the first regulator of effector production in plant-parasitic nematodes! Congratulations to co first author @clempellegrin.bsky.social and all other authors. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
