Yuki Yamashita
1st year PhD student @Hiroshima Univ.
I'm interested in the morphology, development, and evolution of bryophytes.
- Happy new year! I wish this year will become one of the best year for you! Me? I just do what I have to do.
- I listened to a seminar related to this work. Membrane topology inversion is very interesting. doi.org/10.1126/scie...
- Bryophytes hold a larger gene family space than vascular plants | Dong et al. (2025) Nature Plants rdcu.be/eKcyO This is definitely interesting and important to bryophyte research. I feel this way, but I haven't finished reading it yet. I have no idea when I will finish reading this paper. 😅
- Wow! Bookmark has been introduced! Amazing!
- How wonderful bryophytes are!

- To gall researchers, the two papers of my previous supervisor have been out! I am very happy to somewhat contribute one of them. Please check it out! Parasitic-Plant Parasite Rewires Flowering Pathways to Induce Stem-Derived Galls | Udandarao et al. (2025) Plant Direct doi.org/10.1002/pld3...
- Plant organ modulates morphological constraints of insect-induced galls: evidence from citizen science data | Bessho-Uehara et al. (2025) Scientific Reports doi.org/10.1038/s415...
- I went to Mt. Norikura at northern Japanese alps last weekend for TA works. The environment was very unique and many plants I’ve never seen were there. Going back to the base, I saw the dynamic changes of the vegetation from alpine zone to subalpine zone. It was a good experience for me.
- Three-dimensional anatomy and dorsoventral asymmetry of the mature Marchantia polymorpha meristem develops from a symmetrical gemma meristem | Spencer et al. (2024) Development doi.org/10.1242/dev....
- Parts of gemma development and the timing to determine the dorsoventrality are especially interesting. Besides, I learned the importance of examining all three planes; frontal, sagittal, and transverse, to see a whole picture of gene expression pattern in 3D structure.

- Reproducibly oriented cell divisions pattern the prothallus to set up dorsoventrality and de novo meristem formation in Marchantia polymorpha | Wallner and Dolan (2023) Current Biology www.cell.com/current-biol...
- Very interesting work based on careful and precise observation. I like this and really learn a lot from this.

- This review is educational to see the field of plant cell biology, especially cell division, the growth and the fate. doi.org/10.1093/plce...
- I found Anthoceros agrestis at my university! Tiny horns!
- This reading helps us to think about how we manage and drive our research. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

- Merci beaucoup! Je ferai de mon mieux💪
- Finally, I start my PhD research at Hiroshima University supervised by Dr. Shimamura! Bon voyage 🚀🚀🚀
- Quick action!
- Bonne année!
- Ma amie est au Japon! Bienvenue dans mon pays! 🇯🇵
- The era of bryophytes is coming!

- Given the recent advances in omics technologies and bioinformatics software, if I have enough money, I can do almost anything we want to do. Therefore I have to think hard and deeply about what is interesting, what is important, and what is what I want to dedicate my life to.
- Ideally, is it possible to assign quantitative volumes to all factors controlling the development in whatever plants you are researching on? I want to use MorphoGraphX to reconstruct its complete development process in silico.
