#Climate change has turned #Morocco into a scorched land. Little will grow here anymore without irrigation, and even then, the water table is disappearing. #Spain, #Italy, and #Greece are all being hugely affected by drought, but Morocco is on the front line of desertification.

Novel crop varieties obtained by new breeding techniques such as gene-editing are part of the solution to keep EU agriculture competitive, healthy, sustainable and eco-friendly. Huge benefit for farmers and consumers. Listen to the science !!!

"We sometimes draw a false equivalence between research advisers and mentors. And while many advisers are excellent mentors, it’s not exactly a prerequisite for running a lab. But it doesn’t have to be that way." scim.ag/5JE @ScienceCareers

Latest publication from the lab! Define the death timeline! ☠️☠️🎉🔬
The Plant Cell Bucket List: 1) prepare transcriptionally; 2) raise Ca2+ and drop pH; 3) pop mitochondria; 4) break NE and ER; 5) permeate PM; 6) collapse vacuole; 7) maintain PM after death (!!) to degrade in peace. Find the amazing details in our latest: t.ly/uvmJk

Trying to find some words when words fail. Thank you @aaronjmate @MaxBlumenthal @TheGrayzoneNews for inviting me on.

It is my great pleasure to announce ggPlantmap (github.com/leonardojo/ggPlan…), an open-source R package to create ggplot maps from plant images. Now, you can create beautiful plant heatmaps to be visualized and modified in a R coding environment.

For neither can live while the other survives – in plant seeds! In our latest @CurrentBiology we show that the Arabidopsis endosperm executes a tightly controlled cell death program that allows the embryo to develop in the confined space of the plant seed. cell.com/current-biology/ful…
