个人简介

We work on signalling systems in plant development and defence, that allow plants to function in an integrated manner. The greatest present challenges are to identify novel regulatory molecules and their targets. Fortunately, functional genomics enables us to address these questions directly. In particular, we can exploit proteomics and transcriptomics in combination with the widespread availability of mutants and transgenics. We have also invested time in developing tools for studying systemic signalling, especially micro-grafting and sap sampling in Arabidopsis. We have published on both phloem (Corbesier et al. 2007; Truman et al. 2007; Zhang et al. 2010; Lopez-Cobollo et al. 2016) and xylem (Foo et al. 2007) systems. For plant defence against aphids, we are particularly interested in species-wide diversity of both pest virulence and host resistance (Kanvil et al. 2014a) and in genetics of aphid effectors (Kanvil et al. 2014b).
