Our salad NLR work is now online! This was my very first project in the Kamoun lab, and I remember how excited I was (and messaged Aki right away hahaha) when I saw the first HR combos! Big thanks to AmirAli & the team for helping this project turn a new leaf! 🥬✨
🧵 🥬 Lettuce begin! Super excited to share our new manuscript on contrasting patterns of evolution in sensor and helper NLRs in the NRC network! Tune in for some plant immunology and molecular evolution… 🌱🧬💻 (1/14) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
🇬🇧Bee beetle, Trichius sexualis. The hairstyle is unbeatable, only the wild bees can keep up with it. 🇩🇪Südöstlicher Pinselkäfer, Trichius sexualis. Die Frisur ist unschlagbar, da können nur die Wildbienen mithalten. #coleoptera #insects #portrait #beetle #käfer #pinselkäfer…
🏆Papin Prizes for 2025 – now open for applications! Ten awards will be presented at the UK Higher Education Technicians Summit (HETS) on 9 July 2025. Applications are open until January 31 2025. View more details: itss.org.uk/papin-prizes/?… @UKRI_News @InnovationMids @uk_itss
🚨New @biorxivpreprint alert! We are thrilled to share our latest findings—building on our earlier work on suppressors of helper NLRs of NRC family—a Phytophthora infestans L-shaped effector captures resistosome assembly intermediates of tomato NRC3! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/10
1/ Last week we had the pleasure to share our passion for plant biology at the #RoyalNorfolkShow 🌾🌽 Huge thanks to the STEMM Village and our TSL volunteers! @jne_yang Kim Wood @shaniakeh @NickDesnoyer @HsuanPai1 Phon Green @strachan_shona @SiyuSong3 @Adeline_Harant
We’re ready! And we have a LIVE reporter today 😆 #RoyalNorfolkShow2025
Join us for another day at the #RoyalNorfolkShow to talk about what we do at @TheSainsburyLab !

Yet another awesome artwork by our own @HsuanPai1! (PC: Ben Tremblay) #ICAR2025
A huge honor for a great artist ❤️
Humongous honour to be involved in drafting the design and to have it presented by Lord Sainsbury! Looking forward to seeing the final print. (🤫 a chocolate coin version has even been suggested)
NEW! A short update on plant immunity - Do autoactive helper NLRs of the NRC phylogenetic clade require the sensor NLR Prf to induce hypersensitive cell death? We think: No The NRC network is unidirectional and autoactive NRC helpers do not depend on sensors for their activities.
The autoactivity of tomato helper NLR immune proteins of the NRC clade is unaltered in prf mutants of Nicotiana benthamiana biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #biorxiv_plants
