I first met Meng 25 years ago at Salk! Thank you Meng for this opportunity to contribute, and great to be part of this with so many collaborators and former lab members 🌱

It was super exciting to host Christian Fankhauser today at UU_Plants lots of exciting discussions. The key to it all? Blue light and a bit of air !! Martijn van Zanten Rashmi Sasidharan Faculty of Science, Utrecht University #isNorajoiningX?

📢 Thermomorphogenesis community 📢 Next week we will have Bidhan Chandra Malakar (Bidhan Chandra Malakar) presenting his preprint on ELF3-BBX24/BBX25-PIF4 regulation of thermomorphogenesis. Come join us!!

Please share! We are recruiting a PhD student to join us in the CropXR consortium to research the evolution of stress response networks in plants. More information, and application link, here: uu.nl/en/organisatio…

Our paper studying how plants acclimate to simultaneously or sequentially occurred abiotic stresses at a sublethal severity, is online as preprint bioRxiv

Our paper by @JiangZ199 describing how plants acclimate to simultaneous occurence of high temperature and drought and flooding followed by drough is now online as preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. With Ava Verhoeven and cosupervised by Rashmi Sasidharan

Our latest work is on abiotic stress combinations - sequential and simultaneous in Arabidopsis #drought #heat #flooding check it out JZ Martijn van Zanten Ava Verhoeven UU_Plants stay tuned for more on this theme 🥔

Vacancy alert🚨 Technician position with Guido Van den Ackerveken and myself within the CropXR project #potato #lettuce Please spread the word! UU_Plants Graduate School EPS uu.nl/en/organisatio…

New Article: "Evolutional heterochromatin condensation delineates chromocenter formation and retrotransposon silencing in plants" rdcu.be/dOicV "our work uncovers a coevolved mechanism of phase separation in packing heterochromatin and silencing retrotransposons."

Our preprint on multi-stress responses in out now in ⁦⁦Plant Physiology⁩ Shout out to ⁦JZ⁩ for pulling off this incredibly challenging project and to the reviewers for their lovely remarks ⁦Martijn van Zanten⁩ ⁦Ava Verhoeven⁩ academic.oup.com/plphys/advance…

Special thanks to @XiangyuXu_ and Lam Dai Vu for the hard work and perseverance with this story. And thanks to our many collaborators.

🌱 Plants use little pores (stomata) to respond to environmental changes. Work by Ive De Smet and colleagues (@PSB_VIB UGent) reveals the mechanism regulating the stomata response to heat & drought, especially relevant in the context of climate change: vibbio.tech/49gIfEP
