The outer ear is a mammalian innovation but where did it come from? In our study in @Nature, @MathiThiru95 and colleagues find that the outer ear arose from modification of an ancestral gill program first originating in marine invertebrates. nature.com/articles/s41586-0… 1/n

I was so excited (and stressed 😂) to organize my first art workshop in Tartu. We made an amazing garland with acorn cups and pine trees🎄🍄 We discussed life as foreigners in Estonia and shared our problems here. Hope to see more people next time 😍

In this fascinating review Prakshi Aneja and colleagues explore the physiological significance and regulation of leaf thickness and highlight opportunities on how this trait might be targeted for crop improvement. nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/…

In Estonia it gets dark already at 4:30, only coffee saves. I need to rewatch the presentation from two years ago, because there is always "will" about our experiments, and now we have all "done" 🤩 By the way, my third year of PhD started on November 1st ✨

I spent around 5 hours exploring EcM with the small microscope and taking pictures. it feels like it’s better not to start otherwise you will end up with 500 pics😂

Incredible EcM colonization on our Pines, which were planted in June 2024 in two varieties (alone and with 4 Briza) on the soils from abandoned and grazed grasslands ☕️ #EcM

The diversity of Ectomycorrhizae in our pines 😍 So many shapes and colors. Can't wait to learn more about the species! 🌲

The same species, the same planting time, the same 3cm height at the beginning and one single stem but two different locations for 4 month growth: forest on the left and clear-cut on the right. And what do we see! Phenotypic plasticity had fun 🤪

Just started a new experiment with 90 pines and 390 Brizas in open, clearcut and forest locations! Finger crossed we will see results soon 👩🏻‍🌾🌿
