iPlantMicro Lab

Our group seek to address these challenges in a comprehensive manner. In this way, the main objectives of the group are: (i) identifying the relationship between plant responses to environmental stresses and their associated microbiomes, (ii) identifying the signaling pathways necessary for beneficial relationships and their regulatory mechanisms, and (iii) applying the signaling models to a new formula in biofertilizer and biocontroller products in order to enhance crops development and production. Additionally, we want to study trans-generational inheritance of microbiomes and the epigenetic regulation role behind this phenomenon.
