Journal Article
Hamill, H., Hampshire, K., Mariwah, S., Amoako-Sakyi, D., Kyei, A., & Castelli, M. (2019).

Social Science & Medicine, 234, Article 112369. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.socscimed.2019.112369

Where regulation is weak, medicine transactions can be characterised by uncertainty over the drug quality and efficacy, with buyers shouldering the greater burden of risk in exchanges that are typically asymmetric. Drawing on in-depth interviews (N =... Read More about Managing uncertainty in medicine quality in Ghana: The cognitive and affective basis of trust in a high-risk, low-regulation context.

Organ-specific genetic interactions between paralogues of the PXY and ER receptor kinases enforce radial patterning in Arabidopsis vascular tissue (2019)
Journal Article
Wang, N., Bagdassarian, K., Doherty, R., Kroon, J., Connor, K., Wang, X., Wang, W., Jermyn, I., Turner, S., & Etchells, J. (2019). Organ-specific genetic interactions between paralogues of the PXY and ER receptor kinases enforce radial patterning in Arabidopsis vascular tissue. Development, 146(10), Article 177105. https://doi.org/10.1242/dev.177105

In plants, cells do not migrate. Tissues are frequently arranged in concentric rings, thus expansion of inner layers is coordinated with cell division and/or expansion of cells in outer layers. In Arabidopsis stems, receptor kinases, PXY and ER, gene...
