#PlantSciJobs 🌱 Postdoc (x2) and Research Assistant (x2) Dr Edwige Moyroud is seeking 2 Postdocs and 2 Research Assistants to join her investigating petal patterning Applications close: 5 June: Research Assistant bit.ly/4a32ffK17 17 June: Postdoc bit.ly/4dT2LOC
Microscopy images of a petal showing petal patterning developing in the young petals. Around the image is 6-stages of hibiscus development from closed bud to open flower. The flower is plit in two to show one flower with a dark purple bullseye and one flower fully white with no pigment petal patterns.
