New Preprint on As tolerance enhancing fungus
Incredibly happy to see this project finally set fruits. We had to go through quite some headaches to eventually understand and explain the observed phenotype. Rodríguez-Dobreva E. et al. 2026 SSRN SynopsisArsenic (As) contamination...
New Chapter on ABA analytics is out
Happy to see that our book chapter on quantitative and qualitative ABA analysis techniques is finally out. Another notch in the swagger stick Rodríguez-Dobreva, E. et al. 2026 Synopsis Global agricultural productivity is...
New preprint on Seed Microbiota
Very happy that we were invited to participate in this very nice piece of work directed by the group of Natalia González Benítez and Carmen Molina from the Rey Juan Carlos University in Madrid....
Regulation of plant transporters during plant fungus symbiosis
We are very happy that our most recent work got eventually published in Plant Physiology and Biochemistry. Our study investigates ionic buffering and plant transporters regulation during the interaction of Arabidopsis thaliana and Serendipita...
IAM triggers ABA biosynthesis and signalling
We are very happy that our most recent work got eventually published in New Phytologist. Our study investigates the molecular mechanism behind the observation that IAM, a precursor to the growth hormone auxin, inhibits...
New preprint on IAM triggering ABA signalling
In this work we ask the question as to whether we can use natural variation as a tools to identify novel components of IAM-mediated primary roots growth inhibition. Through the close collaboration with the...
Strawberry production challenged by climate change
Strawberries are water-demanding plants. They require consistent moisture to thrive, especially during the fruiting period. Hence, the current climate change scenario poses significant threats to strawberry production, impacting various aspects of growth, yield, and...
Listen to Podcasts explaining this year’s work
We thought that someone would possibly be interested to get an oral explanation of the key findings of our work. Thus, we generated deep dive one-on-one narratives of the main findings of the papers...
Extreme environments as a driver of plant-fungus co-evolution
On behalf of our entire research team, I am super happy and proud to see our latest work finally published in . In this study, we asked the question as to whether three different...
