Proud PI continues at #padiba2024 as Rianne Kluck presents the beautiful range of species we’ve looked at on our hunt for exodermis diversity.

Swati Mahiwal Swati Mahiwal presented her brilliant work on the differential suberization across Lotus japonicus endodermis. Looking forward to the future results!

Marie Barberon and her group’s new and exciting findings on dynamics of root suberin plasticity PADiBa2024

Dear #padiba2024 crew, Have you ever drawn a root picture by hand and filled it with colors to indicate barriers, gene expression or cell identity? We got a tool that you’ll love - come check out poster P1!

Time to start the session 7! The last of today! Luca Piccinini is calling us with our tiny but super efficient bell!

Our final session of the day is underway with a captivating talk by our invited speaker, Antonio Heredia Bayona, on the fascinating interaction between light ☀️, and plant cuticles 🌱 #PADiBa2024

Marie Alonso is now giving us insights on how to modify tomato fruit cuticle. Very interesting project!! 🍅🌱 #PADiBa2024

Chiara Campoli from James Hutton Institute is presenting her amazing research on the mechanisms behind wax and cutin deposition in barley 🌾!!! #PADiBa2024 #PlantScience #Barriers

Jung-Min Lee is sharing with us his inspiring work on understanding the wound healing process accompanying multilayered cellular reprogramming in Arabidopsis leaves! 🌱

We're wrapping up today's sessions with Yifat Quan, who is presenting his outstanding work on the role of ABCGs transporters in tomato cuticle formation! 🍅 #PADiBa2024

Aurélia Emonet Aurelia Emonet is telling us her very cool story on lignin patterning and Cardamine explosive fruits PADiBa2024

Now is the turn of Niko Geldner Niko Geldner presenting exciting new data to decipher the cell biology of lignification and suberization in the endodermis. #padiba2024

Sara Horvath is showing us great data on the impact of new regulators in the differentiation of root barriers #padiba2024

Hemamshu Ratnakaram integrates amazing data to explain us how the plant cuticle is involved in coordinating cell growth during apical hook development.

Laura González-Valenzuela is nicely presenting her data of a recently discovered Cys-rich peptide called KERBEROS and its involvement in ROS perception at the embryo-endosperm apoplastic interface. #padiba2024

Congratulations to Luca Piccinini for the best poster prize sponsored by New Phytologist and Eilaf Adil Bashir for the second prize by Agrisera. Thanks to the scientific committee Rochus Franke Marie Barberon Hugues Renault (@huguesrenault.bsky.social) and Chiara Campoli, who highlighted the quality of all posters!
