DBG Newsletter Nr. 81
Erstmals gelang es, die Anzahl der Chromosomen mit CRISPR zu verringern – ohne Nachteile für die Pflanze. Wo Stickstofffixierung den Klimawandel antreibt, welche Organismen sich durch „Yes, we CAM“ auszeichnen und wie sich die DNA einfacher entschlüsseln lässt, steht ebenfalls in den Forschungsnachrichten.
DBG announces to establish a new network for early career scientists, asks for your input on topics to be addressed to all DBG members, and has awarded new Masters of Science with prizes.
The Editors of our journal Plant Biology recommend three reviews: on how multiple hormones orchestrate successful flowering and reproduction, about current knowledge on biosynthesis and function of phytosterols, sterol conjugates, brassinosteroids, and specialized steroidal metabolites in the very productive monocot Duckweed, and about the hydraulic traits and water use strategies of mountain and dwarf shrubs.
Besides positive news from the EU, you can find several funding opportunities in this issue. The newsletter also lists conferences, workshops, and other meetings for early career researchers and the scientific community. Please be aware that several (early bird) registrations will already end around the turn of the year or even earlier.
