Dual expression and anatomy lines allow simultaneous visualization of gene expression and anatomy (2021)
Journal Article
Kümpers, B. M. C., Han, J., Vaughan-Hirsch, J., Redman, N., Ware, A., Atkinson, J. A., Leftley, N., Janes, G., Castiglione, G., Tarr, P. T., Pyke, K., Voß, U., Wells, D. M., & Bishopp, A. (2022). Dual expression and anatomy lines allow simultaneous visualization of gene expression and anatomy. Plant Physiology, 188(1), 56-69. https://doi.org/10.1093/plphys/kiab503

Studying the developmental genetics of plant organs, requires following gene expression in specific tissues. To facilitate this, we have developed the Dual Expression Anatomy Lines (DEAL), which incorporate a red plasma membrane marker alongside a fl...

Non-invasive hydrodynamic imaging in plant roots at cellular resolution (2021)
Journal Article
Pascut, F. C., Couvreur, V., Dietrich, D., Leftley, N., Reyt, G., Boursiac, Y., Calvo-Polanco, M., Casimiro, I., Maurel, C., Salt, D. E., Draye, X., Wells, D. M., Bennett, M. J., & Webb, K. F. (2021). Non-invasive hydrodynamic imaging in plant roots at cellular resolution. Nature Communications, 12, Article 4682. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-24913-z

A key impediment to studying water-related mechanisms in plants is the inability to non-invasively image water fluxes in cells at high temporal and spatial resolution. Here, we report that Raman microspectroscopy, complemented by hydrodynamic modelli... Read More about Non-invasive hydrodynamic imaging in plant roots at cellular resolution.

Arabidopsis antibody resources for functional studies in plants (2020)
Journal Article
Oh, J., Wilson, M., Hill, K., Leftley, N., Hodgman, C., Bennett, M. J., & Swarup, R. (2020). Arabidopsis antibody resources for functional studies in plants. Scientific Reports, 10(1), Article 21945. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-78689-1

© 2020, The Author(s). Here we report creation of a unique and a very valuable resource for Plant Scientific community worldwide. In this era of post-genomics and modelling of multi-cellular systems using an integrative systems biology approach, bett...

A mechanistic framework for auxin dependent Arabidopsis root hair elongation to low external phosphate (2018)
Journal Article
Giehl, R. F. H., Bhosale, R., Giri, J., Pandey, B. K., Giehl, R. F., Hartmann, A., Traini, R., Truskina, J., Leftley, N., Hanlon, M., Swarup, K., Rashed, A., Voß, U., Alonso, J., Stepanova, A., Yun, J., Ljung, K., Brown, K. M., Lynch, J. P., Dolan, L., …Swarup, R. (2018). A mechanistic framework for auxin dependent Arabidopsis root hair elongation to low external phosphate. Nature Communications, 9(1), 1-9. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-018-03851-3

Phosphate (P) is an essential macronutrient for plant growth. Roots employ adaptive mechanisms to forage for P in soil. Root hair elongation is particularly important since P is immobile. Here we report that auxin plays a critical role promoting root... Read More about A mechanistic framework for auxin dependent Arabidopsis root hair elongation to low external phosphate.
