It's a great honor to have been awarded with a Spanish national research grant! Now let's the fun begin 🎉🥳 Congratulations also to all my colleagues at the CABD! What a success, 11 awarded projects 🥳 We rock!!! 😎

Super proud of Tanja Đapa and everything she's been achieving during these months: María Zambrano and Beatriz Galindo contracts, national project from Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades... and now, a Ramón y Cajal contract!!! What's next? 🥳

#CABDseminars "Specific cell division mechanisms in Anabaena", Antonia Herrero IBVF cicCartuja 🗓️October 27th ⏰ 10:30 am 📍Rosalind Franklin Auditorium at #CABD Hosted by Fernando Govantes Govantes Lab

Outstanding talk today at #CABDseminars with Antonia Herrero from IBVF cicCartuja . Dr. Herrero talked about the extended work understanding Anabaena’s cell division. Antonia was hosted by Fernando Govantes Govantes Lab

It was our pleasure to bring at Centro Andaluz de Biología del Desarrollo Antonia Herrero's lessons on Anabaena's cell division. Thank you, and Enrique Flores García for such fruitful discussion, and hope to hear about your new (last) stories very soon!

Excited to share our new paper where we report a genome-wide analysis of essential genes in Planctopirus limnophila. Little by little we are taming the outlier! !! rdcu.be/dqDTy dpdev, David Moyano Palazuelo, Valentina Henriques, Nature Communications, Centro Andaluz de Biología del Desarrollo (1/3).

The regulation of polar flagella assembly in Pseudomonas putida 👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Seems like Víctor de Lorenzo got ahead of us and shared it first 😅 Here you have our latest preprint about flagella assembly in our favourite bug. We shed some light about how polarly flagellated bacteria control the 'where, when and how many' 👇

Last Monday María Zapata & Paulacilleros presented the latest results from their PhD research work at #cabdmeetings. María is doing her PhD with Fernando Govantes and Aroa López-Sánchez. Paula is working at Sanchezalcazar’s Lab supervised by JOSE ANTONIO SANCHEZ. The talks were chaired by Christina Paliou

Marta Pulido 🦋martapulido.bsky.social from Govantes Lab’s lab and Juan Antonio Martínez from Inés Canosa & Amando Flores’s lab participated in the Workshop "Environmental Microbiology: Microbes as Safeguards of the Environment" in Baeza! Great representation from #CABD!

Proud to announce that Aroa López-Sánchez has been recognized with a teaching excellence award by Pablo de Olavide And huge congrats to Nacho Flor too! Very well deserved!👏

One more year, Seville celebrates science in the #22FeriaCiencia 🧪 Great work from our micro-mates Elisa, Isamar, Valentín, Luis, Juan, Irene... and all the talented volunteers (dozens!) who have been highlighting research at Centro Andaluz de Biología del Desarrollo during these days!

We just launched our web page baclifestyle.es. Come visit and enjoy!!

How Bacteria Outsmart Plants—Then Flee the Scene 🧵1/6 Ever wonder how bacteria organize during an infection?! Our new research in Nature Microbiology uncovers the sophisticated teamwork of Pseudomonas syringae, a notorious plant pathogen. 🔗 rdcu.be/egczU

2/6 Individual bacteria specialize, some suppress immunity, while others escape early to spread infection before the plant tissue collapses. It's a division of labor! The study highlights how phenotypic heterogeneity allows pathogens to adapt to host environments dynamically.

3/6 Think of it as a team effort to overcome immunity: -Attack team: Cells activate a secretion system to suppress plant defenses, creating a "safe zone" for their kin. -Escape team: Motile cells flee infected tissue before necrosis, ensuring survival and pathogen spread

5/6 And here’s the kicker: specialization helps bacteria spread! Flagella-equipped bacteria exit the infected tissue, ready to colonize new areas. This coordinated strategy is key for the pathogen's success. #PlantScience #Microbiology

6/6 With implications for understanding crop diseases, this work reveals new vulnerabilities in plant pathogens. Could targeting their teamwork lead to sustainable plant protection strategies? This work opens doors for innovative pest control. #PlantPathology #BacterialMotility
