ERC-funded PhD position: auxin in plant morphogenesis!
Come to our team to study molecular mechanisms downstream of auxin signaling that control morphogenesis in plants! ueb.cas.cz/en/news/?id=...
🚨 PhD Position in Plant Molecular Biology 🌱
We are looking for a motivated PhD student to join our team to study root protective barriers. If you are interested in confocal microscopy, cell wall biology, and plant development, this project might be for you! Please share!

Please consider attending this conference in the Swiss Alps meetings.embo.org/event/26-pla... . Exciting science & great venue, lots of opportunities for selected talks from abstracts.
Join the conversation on Bluesky with #EMBOispp2026
Interested in the most recent developments in plant science? Join the Mendel Early Career Symposium on May 21-22 at the @viennabiocenter.bsky.social to exchange with experts about their science and career trajectories. Register by March 13th for a talk. More here: www.oeaw.ac.at/gmi/news-eve...
Final corrected proof now online in @jxbotany.bsky.social
Curious about phloem, grafting, starch, source–sink relations, or plant growth? Using phloem development mutants and grafting, we show that root phloem is key for coordinating both root and shoot growth.

Excited to share our latest preprint. Arabidopsis thaliana has been the leading model for plant genetics - but most of what we know comes from growth chambers.
Can this model also help us understand how climate shapes plants in the wild and reveal gene functions under real environmental variability?
Happy to see one of my PhD thesis chapters featured on the @eth-dbiol.bsky.social @ethz.ch news channel! 🎉🌱
Congratulations to all co-authors — @tinaschreier.bsky.social, Michaela Fischer-Stettler, Sam Zeeman, and Elisabeth Truernit — and many thanks to everyone who helped make this work possible!

"From industrial Past to Green Future" written around an ancient industry tower typical for the region together with a plant changing colours from blue to green is the motto of the German Society for Plant Sciences international Conference, the Botanik-Tagung, 2026 in Bochum Germany, that brings together plant scientists from several scientific disciplines. The logo highlights the structural change of the Ruhr area, from coal mining + heavy industries to the increasingly important issues of climate protection, sustainability + preservation of biodiversity, with plant sciences at the forefront of this transformation.

🌱Hello Bluesky! We are PPHEN, a newly established research group for precision phenotyping led by Lukas Roth, at Martin-Luther-University (MLU) Halle-Wittenberg, Germany, launching 1 April 2026!
A study from the Truernit group at @ethzurich.bsky.social explores how the OPS/OPL gene family drives root and shoot growth in #Arabidopsis, both directly and through phloem development. More: biol.ethz.ch/en/news-and-...
