Congratulations to our postdoc @henrykstraube for getting his Phd thesis honored!🌱
Henryk Straube@HenrykStraube
I am honored and thrilled to receive the Wilhelm-Pfeffer price for my doctoral thesis. It has been a wild ride and this price is the icing on the cake. Thanks to everyone involved and special thanks to the @PlantSciDBG_en !

Last week, our group member @k_vollheyde took part in the @MSCActions organized #ScienceIsWonderful fair in Brussels.
Katharina Vollheyde@k_vollheyde
It´s so rewarding to see shining kids´ eyes when sharing our excitement for science. @Roocfer1 and I shared our fascination for plants and the products they make at our booth “The Plant Factory” at the #ScienceIsWonderful fair. Thanks to @MSCActions for this great event.

Here’s a link to a method paper we published not that long ago on using a VIGS co-silencing strategy in lupin:

So, there you have it. We combine a plant virus, a bacterium, and two plant species for VIGS to work. VIGS also works in many other plant species than lupin. If you are curious to learn more, this paper is good go-to source:

Seeing whitening of lupin leaves is a great sign in our group! We use virus-induced gene silencing (aka #VIGS) to silence genes in lupin plants; genes we think may be involved in the production of lupin defence compounds. A thread ↓ 1/
