Today is my first day as an Assistant Professor @NTUsg @ntusbs, after ten rewarding years working with my wonderful mentors @talbotlabTSL @wenboEffector and colleagues @TheSainsburyLab

Featuring rare books and historical records that date as far back as 1531, explore 150 years of the Singapore Botanic Gardens Library at the ‘Roots of Knowledge’ exhibition. 📚 Catch the exhibition from now till 1 Jun 2026, 9am – 6pm, at the Botanical Art Gallery!

Proud to share our MS from @Freddie_King00 & Juan with the @AdamWu9527 & @lderevnina labs! AS109-mediated agroinfiltration enables transient expression across non-model plants and positions faba bean as a tractable system for studying disease-resistance doi.org/10.64898/2026.…

New OA Article: "Membrane remodelling mediates lipopeptide-induced immunity in Arabidopsis" rdcu.be/feoNF Lipid-driven mechanism for immune activation by a bacterial lipopeptide. Perception at the cell membrane leads to deformation, mechanosensing and early signalling.

Some reflections on #Fungal26 This was a great meeting as always but set against some turbulent times of course, which meant many regular attendees were not present. This thread is mainly for them. However, the proportion of 1st time attendees was very high & international. 1/15

Algal pyrenoids—condensates that mediate ~1/3 of Earth’s CO2 fixation—change size and number as cells divide. Our data suggest a simple control mechanism: a kinase that continuously ejects material from the condensate! ☀️🌍🔬💧 #Biophysics #Photosynthesis biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

NEW H. H. Flor Distinguished Review: All pathogens must sense that they have arrived at their host. This is a necessary part of infection in order to effect the changes in pathogen biology required to progress through their life cycle. Rachel Hammond et al. review recent literature and provide speculation as to how this might happen, by analogy to the five human senses. Read “The Five Senses: How Do Plant Pathogens Know They Found Their Host?” to learn more: doi.org/10.1094/MPMI-1… @Seb_EvdA

Our new paper is out today in J Cell Biology. We explore nucleolar rejuvenation following heat stress in a model filamentous fungus. rupress.org/jcb/article/22…

Our new paper! @PNASNews, 1/17 Healing isn’t about eliminating stress- it’s about regulating it. doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2… Work led by @ganguly_akansha reveals how plants carefully manage wound-induced stress (ROS) at the cellular level to activate organ regeneration.
