Very excited to share my first solo Tansley Insight. An integrated view on the hydraulics of aboveground plant meristems, and the framework of my future work as part of this community #PlantScience

On growth and flow: hydraulic aspects of aboveground meristems
Water is essential for plant growth under both normal and stress conditions. Aboveground, two key meristems control plant development: the shoot apical meristem and the vascular cambium. Here, stem c...

Ingenious solutions!
New paper!💡 Amir Ohad developed this nifty setup to measure weak forces generated by freely moving plants, based on the deflection of a pendulum (straw from the cafeteria 😎), which does not require any tethering of the plant: academic.oup.com/jxb/advance-...
Plant-obstacle interactions here we come!

Thrilled to share our latest work: how plants control growth through activation of a surface-specific growth programme. Thanks @zoenv.bsky.social, @nathan-german.bsky.social and the other coauthors for all the hard work! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Plant cells at the organ surface use mechanical cues to activate a specific growth control programme
During morphogenesis of multicellular organs, cells acquire distinct identities that meet specific functional requirements. Epidermal identity is widely considered essential for plant morphogenesis du...

Introducing the 1,000 Flower Collection 🧬🌹

I’m creating 1,000 genetically designed flowers each crafted with new colors, patterns, and shapes.

Here’s how I’m making it happen… and how you can join me on this journey 🧵(1/7)

From Old Joe, to the floral embellished Dino! Super-packed sessions and fun at the Black country museum! NGS-2025 in the city of Birmingham and 🇬🇧 was fantastic! @newphyt.bsky.social

Bumping into friends from 🇨🇦 for the @newphyt.bsky.social NGS-2025, is such a reminder that world is small and everyone is under one, same and large 'canopy' of plant biology! Great symposium and happy to meet @virajalim.bsky.social!

Anomalies often result in meaningful identities. Stochastic diffusion of proteins is necessary for identity in leaves. However, when the diffusion is stopped, it affects the identity of the leaf.

Speaking with two of my mentors (Utpal and Olivier) on developmental robustness. Walking through the lens of history, science and philosophy!
Thanks to @insdb.bsky.social for the platform!
Vishwadeep Mane talks to Utpal Nath and Olivier Hamant about robustness in biological systems.

Part 1 of this interview is out now. Read here: insdb.in/news/intervi...
