Project description:To understand the role of WRKY10 transcription factor in foliar pigmentation patterns in Marchantia (liverwort) and assess the conservation of its regulatory network in Lactuca sativa var. Redfire(angiosperm).
Project description:To understand a role of MpMET in maintenance of cytpsine methylation and transposon silencing, we obtained a genome wide profile of 5-methylated cytosine from the Mpmet mutant of a model liverwort, Marchantia polymorpha.
Project description:Most of our current knowledge about the molecular events ruling plant-virus interaction come from studies focusing on vascular plants. We here characterized the molecular, cellular and physiological events goberning plant-virus interactions in the non-vascular liverwort Marchantia polymorpha.
