- Reposted by Michael Nicolas🚨Job Alert!! Assistant professor vacancy ‘plant abiotic stress resilience’ in our group @uuplants.bsky.social Come for the science, stay for the amazing colleagues 😀More details here www.uu.nl/en/organisat... Please share!!
- Reposted by Michael NicolasOur latest work on the Solanum pangenome made the cover @nature.com 🍅🍆🥔 Proud of this collective work with an amazing group of collaborators!
- How do potato cultivars cope with salt stress? With Rumyana Karlova (PPH-WUR) we are glad to share that our paper investigating potato plants' response to salt stress is out www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... ! with @pph-wur.bsky.social @christatesterink.bsky.social

Many flowering bulbs can *pull themselves* deeper with contractile roots! 📷 Rama Sisodia & Satish C. Bhatla; Mordecai J. Jaffe & A. Carl Leopold
- We are looking for a motivated PhD candidate to work with us on the molecular mechanisms controlling axillary bud dormancy and plant shoot branching at the Centro Nacional de Biotecnología in Madrid. If you are interested, contact me or @pilarcubas.bsky.social
