Cool work on the regulation of leaf morphology@CurrentBiology. Leaf dissection and margin serration are independently regulated by two regulators converging on the CUC2-auxin module in strawberry. cell.com/current-biology/pdf… Congratulations to Dr. Xi Luo and co-authors.

I am thrilled that our work is finally published and our transgene-free canker resistant citrus generated by Cas12a RNP has received regulatory approvals from APHIS and EPA! Thanks Hang for the persistence. Thanks our collaborators. It took us >5 years! doi.org/10.1038/s41467-023-3… – at Florida, USA

How does fertilization induced seed and fruit formation? Our study of the 'inside-out' fruit of strawberry has much to offer. The work is published in Nature Communications. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
