Systems analysis of peptide-mediated cell-cell communication in the plant root by in situ sequencing

Cellene i multicellulære organismer kan kommunisere med hverandre ved at små peptider eksporteres fra en celle og deretter binder seg til reseptorer på overflaten av nærliggende celler, og aktiverer disse og dermed endrer uttrykket av gener. Dette prosjektet studerer hvordan peptid-basert celle-t...

Partners and Networks - Peptide Ligand-Receptor Signaling in Cell Separation Processes in Plants

Planter har evnen til å produsere nye organer som blad, blomster og røtter gjennom hele livsløpet, og de mister også organer gjennom livssyklusen - skadete og visne blader blir felt, og frø og frukt løsner fra morplanten. Dette er biologisk styrte prosesser der celleveggene i bestemte cellelag (a...

IS-DAAD-Forskerutveksl. Norge-Tyskland

Identification of novel peptide ligand-receptor pairs in plants

Funding through DAAD will contribute to the two partners' joint aim of understanding the importance and function of receptor-ligand pairs in plants. More specifically we want to establish a collaboration combining the genetic approach of the Aalen lab, Un iversity of Oslo, with the biochemical ap...

FRIMEDBIO-Fri prosj.st. med.,helse,biol

Dissection and comparison of cell separation processes in plants

Planter har mekanismer for å frigjøre organer når disse har tjent sin hensikt. Men selv om dette er naturlige prosesser fører for tidlig felling av blader, blomster, frø og frukt til store avlingstap (5-20%) i viktige landbruksvekster (f.eks. raps, soya, vindruer, julestjerne) over hele verden. E...

Epigenetic gene regulation: The 'conspiracy' between chromatin modification and transcription factors.

An important aspect of gene regulation involves the interconversion between transcriptionally permissive euchromatin and repressive heterochromatin, which in part is regulated by post-translational modifications of the nucleosomal histone tails. The patte rns of histone modification (the histone ...

Genetic dissection of maternal effects in early embryo and endosperm development

Seed development is an interplay of different tissues that execute different transcriptional programmes. By double fertilization two haploid sperm cells fuse with the haploid egg cell and the diploid central cell of the female gametophyte to produce the d iploid embryo and the triploid endosperm,...

Elucidation of mechanisms of abscission using the model plant Arabidopsis and the ornamental plant poinsettia

Summary Abscission, the process that enables plants to shed organs after they have served their function, is very important in agriculture and horticulture. Harvest quality and quantity is dependent on control of abscission of seeds (cereals and oil seed rape), fruits and berries (fruit product...

Genetic determination of mechanisms involved in Arabidopsis endosperm development

Although dicots like Arabidopsis has an endosperm which is consumed during embryo development, the stages of endosperm development from the fertilized triploid endosperm through the endosperm coenocyte to the cellular endosperm is highly conserved between Arabidopsis and the cereals. The main con...
