Interested in plant water relations? We have an exciting opportunity for a fully funded PhD position starting in June 2026. More info about the project : Discovering the character of trees👇: utas.edu.au/research/degre…

Really proud of @HanhPlantGene for submitting her PhD thesis today! It’s a massive achievement and a privilege to have been a part of her journey, all the way to seeing her click submit. Congratulations Hanh!

New paper in @NewPhyt Basal axillary buds in pea are hydraulically connected to the stem but are protected during drought by osmotic adjustment @Here_be_dicers @CoEPlantSuccess @JazHumphreys nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np…

Check out our recent work published in @NewPhyt showing how pea plants protect basal buds during drought while maintaining hydraulic connection to the stem, ensuring rapid regrowth when rewatered. Work led by @Here_be_dicers with @Brodribb_Lab @CoEPlantSuccess
