Plant & Microbial Biosciences
Plant and Microbial Biosciences (PMB) uses various model systems to address fundamental questions about plant and microbial life. Findings in PMB have implications in crop science, conservation biology, and human health.
Areas of Focus
plant viral infections · photosynthesis · small molecule signaling · plant & microbial metabolism · cytoskeleton organization & regulation · mechanotransduction · assembly of membrane-associated complexes · plant-microbe interactions · cell morphology & cell division · biodiversity · crop domestication · cyanobacteria · host-parasite interactions · plant hormones · photoreception
