研究领域
Our research seeks to uncover the molecular mechanisms underlying symbiotic infection of plants by beneficial microbes. To do this we are studying the processes underlying infection of plant roots by rhizobia and arbuscular mycorrhiza. Rhizobia are N-fixing bacteria that colonize the roots of plants to form an endosymbiosis with legumes in which fixed N is provided to the host plant in specialized organs called nodules. This symbiosis, called nodulation, has evolved from a more ancient interaction that arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi form with most land plants. In order to understand how these microbes are accommodated by the host plant we will identify host components required for the colonization of plant roots and the formation of intracellular infection structures.
