International interest for our lab's work!
Christa Testerink's lab
Lab of Christa Testerink based at the University of Amsterdam focusing on the biochemistry and genet
Plants have the ability to quickly acclimate to sudden changes in their environment. One of the first reactions is to change the composition of the lipids in the cell membrane. This in turn triggers a cascade of intracellular signalling that eventually leads to acclimatisation and survival. A key player in the response of plants to many stress conditions is the lipid second messenger phosphatidic

Thousands of cute Arabidopsis seedlings sacrificed themselves to help us understand how do they respond to stresses.
Yes, our double stress story is available online!

Dorota in Warwick: See how happy phospho-proteomics can make you.
Een stukje over wortel-modellen die we in ons lab gebruiken, in wis-actueel (tijdschrift voor wiskunde leraren en leerlingen), waarin Magdalena over het model vertelt dat we in ons lab hebben ontwikkeld.
A small article in the newspaper for Dutch math students and teachers about the root-fit model. Dutch only, but you are welcome to throw it through google-translator :)

Dont miss the latest review by Christa and Ronald in PlantPhysiol! Have a happy read!
The art of being flexible: how to escape from shade, salt and drought Environmental stresses, such as shading of the shoot, drought and soil salinity, threaten plant growth, yield and survival. Plants can alleviate the impact of these stresses through various modes of phenotypic plasticity such as shade avoidance and halotropism. Here we review the current state of kn…
