 FINISHED 

Improving the resistance of legume crops to combined abiotic and biotic stress (ABSTRESS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

ABSTRESS applies combined, integrated systems biology and comparative genomics approaches to conduct a comprehensive study of the gene networks implicated in the interaction of drought stress and Fusarium infection in legumes. It uses Medicago truncatula as a model to rapidly identify characteristics for introgression into elite pea varieties and a field test of their performance against existing ...

Robust developmental patterns generated by opposing gradients of mobile small RNAs (SRNAGRAD)

Start date: May 1, 2013, End date: Jul 4, 2016,

Small RNAs are key regulatory molecules and it was recently shown that gradients formed by mobile small RNAs contribute significantly to developmental patterning. Organ polarity is an excellent model to study this newly recognized role of small RNAs. In developing leaves, dorsoventral determinants are expressed in robust and sharply defined domains on the upper (adaxial) or lower (abaxial) side of ...
