Plants in a saline environment have no other choice than to adapt. Spanish and French researchers show one of those adaptions in the newly published research “Parallel evolution of salinity toleran…

Plants from the Cape Verde Islands evolved parallel mutations to protect from high salinity.

Abstract. Root barrier cell types, like the endodermis and exodermis, are crucial for plant acclimation to environmental stresses. Deposition of suberin, a

A comprehensive single-nucleus transcriptomic atlas of Arabidopsis across multiple tissues enables the quantification of leaf cell aging state at a single-cell level, highlighting the senescence-relat...

Organisms regulate gene expression in response to environmental cues, a process known as plasticity, to adjust to changing environments. Research into natural variation and the evolution of plasticity...

The main scope of our research is in understanding how plants interrelate with their surrounding environment. We are especially interested on the molecular mechanisms that allow plants to perceive and cope with the presence of pathogen threats. Our main line of research focuses on the cellular events triggered by the intracellular presence of pathogen-derived RNA silencing suppressors and its consequences both for plant development and defence reprogramming. Another line of research in the lab focuses on studying the evolution of hormone-mediated plant-microbe communication.
