The dual face of photoreceptors during seed germination

Seed germination depends on light in many plants. But not always: Aethionema arabicum, a plant adapted to challenging environmental conditions, does it its own way. Here, the phytochromes, the receptors for red and far-red light, play an unexpected role in seed germination and time this…

Autophagy: The molecular regulation of self-eating

Autophagy, or “self-eating”, is an essential cellular quality control mechanism that clears the cell of protein aggregates and damaged organelles. This mechanism is inactive under normal conditions and only triggered upon persistent cellular stress. Researchers from the Gregor Mendel…

Bryophytes branch differently… also at the molecular level

Non-vascular bryophytes live in colonies that cover the ground and resemble tiny forests. In a real forest, plants compete for light in different layers of the canopy. If a plant does not receive enough sunlight, it stops lateral branching and instead grows vertically to reach the sunlight.…

New stop along the cellular journey of recycling organelles in plants

A “hub and spoke” system enables plant cells to efficiently coordinate cellular trafficking, particularly for cellular recycling, the so-called autophagy process. Specialized vesicles, the autophagosomes, engulf harmful molecules and carry them to the vacuole, where they are degraded. During…

When mothers shut down the fathers’ genes in the embryo

In humans, and many other species, both genes inherited from the mother and from the father influence how embryos develop. In the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha, however, the mother has total control, as researchers from the Berger lab at GMI now uncovered. In a study published in eLife,…

How a harmful fungus renders its host plant defenseless

The fungus Ustilago maydis attacks corn and can cause significant damage to its host. To do this, it first ensures that the plant offers little resistance to the infection. The surgical precision it applies is shown by a new study, initiated at GMI and continued at the University of Bonn,…

GMI scientists inaugurate The Plant Cell’s Mendel celebrations

The journal The Plant Cell joins the celebrations of the 200th birthday anniversary of the “Father of genetics” with a series of reviews and perspective articles on plant genetics. The first two authors in this series, Ortrun Mittelsten Scheid and Frédéric Berger are themselves following in…

How the first roots developed more than 400 million years ago

A plant fossil from a geological formation in Scotland sheds light on the development of the earliest known form of roots. A team led by researchers at GMI – the Gregor Mendel Institute of Molecular Plant Biology of the Austrian Academy of Sciences, the University of Edinburgh and the…

Battle of the Pleiades against plant immunity

Mythological nymphs reincarnate as a group of corn smut proteins to launch a battle on maize immunity. One of these proteins appears to stand out among its sister Pleiades, much like its namesake character in Greek mythology. The research carried out at GMI – Gregor Mendel Institute of…

Profiling gene expression in plant embryos one nucleus at a time

The first plant embryo gene expression atlas at the single cell level was developed by a team of researchers at GMI – Gregor Mendel Institute of Molecular Plant Biology of the Austrian Academy of Sciences. The work, published in the journal Development, is a milestone on the way to…
