Research:  My group is conducting research in two different areas using the plant model system Arabidopsis thaliana. The first project aims at tackling the regulation of adventitious root initiation that is a key limiting step during vegetative propagation. The second project aims at understanding the function of genes expressed in the phloem, the vascular compartment involved in the distribution of photosynthetic products produced in the leaves to the source organs.
