Our pre-print is now published online at New Phytologist; Effective root responses to salinity stress include maintained cell expansion and carbon allocation nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np… Wonderful collaboration @PPH_WUR WUR Plant Diana Santelia Kilian Duijts @jasper_lamers Yanxia Zhang

And our other pre-print published in the same week Plant Cell & Environment ! Natural variation in salt‐induced root growth phases and their contribution to root architecture plasticity onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/pc… Led by @lot_gommers WUR Plant @PPH_WUR

We show that salt activates LBD16 independent of auxin-ARF7/19: a ZAT6-dependent pathway enables root branching while the canonical pathway is inhibited by salt!

It's online! Our latest study on plant temperature signalling. In the 𝑠ℎ𝑜𝑜𝑡, temp signalling tightly overlaps with light. Here we show that in the 𝑟𝑜𝑜𝑡 there's a lot of overlap with water availability signalling. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
