My lab's very first manuscripts are out!!! - We identified nearly 60 conserved #RNA structures in plastids - We found that transcriptional response to warm temperatures in whole seedling is confounded by response at organ level #thermomorphogenesis Link to both preprints below

Plants encounter high temperatures during the day. We report a multisensor high-temperature signaling framework for triggering daytime thermomorphogenesis in Arabidopsis. Congratulations to all authors @DeFan1131790 @nan22791 @Xuemei_RNAlab -- nature.com/articles/s4146…
