A busy week packing and unpacking! Very excited to move a whole 2.3 miles down the road to the new Crop Science Centre. Exciting times ahead Department of Plant Sciences Crop Science Centre - the lab enjoying well-deserved pizza on the terrace 😍

Please RT far and wide! We have funding to appoint two PhD students in plant-pathogen interactions in the lab Cambridge University Department of Plant Sciences Crop Science Centre in 2022!!! plantsci.cam.ac.uk/postgraduate/p… plantsci.cam.ac.uk/postgraduate/p… Deadline 6th of Jan for both. Feel free to contact for a chat.

Amazing how the ⁦Crop Science Centre⁩ has grown in just the two years since we launched.

Unexpected first day collecting pumpkins at the #CropSciCentre

Only 1 week left to apply: jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/37915/ ***4 year post doc Cambridge University in plant-pathology*** Welcoming and open to all - Dept. will cover VISA fees etc. If interested but don't need a post right away apply anyway - very flexible start date. #PlantSciJobs

It's poster presentation time at Department of Plant Sciences Research Day Robinson College

Plant shopping with the lab - spot the scientists! Comforting to see the optimism and forward planning shown here by both final year PhD student Olaf Kranse and first year PhD student Beth Molloy

In this issue, Drs Beth Molloy Thomas Baum & Sebastian Eves-van den Akker discuss unlocking the #development- & #physiology-altering ‘#effector toolbox’ of #plant-parasitic #nematodes.

We're delighted to share last-day pics from #ICPP2023 featuring Sebastian Eves-van den Akker's Plant-Parasite/Pathogen Interactions group at Crop Science Centre! Beth Molloy shares insight into a nematode effectorome. Anika Damm and Olaf Kranse discuss molecular aspects of plant-nematode interactions.

Wrap your eyeballs around this! New in situ protocol by Alexis L Sperling Multiple mRNA, in the same animal, sub-cellular resolution 🥲. Here is DG + SvG effector at the same time. Preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Department of Plant Sciences Crop Science Centre

We used gland-cell specific transcriptomics to uncover the effector repertoire of a plant-parasitic nematode. Using this, we investigated the system level properties of effectors including their evolutionary history and deployment during parasitism. 🪱🌱 doi.org/10.1371/journa…
