  Suppression of extracellular host hydrolases by a plant pathogen
University of Oxford Department of Plant Sciences
  Prof R Van der Hoorn
Applications accepted all year round
The extracellular space in leaves (the apoplast) is an important battlefield for plant-pathogen interactions. Plants defend this space by the (induced) secretion of hydrolytic enzymes.

  Photoreceptor regulation of plant development
University of Sheffield Department of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology
  Dr S Casson
Applications accepted all year round
Plant growth and development is highly dependent on the light environment. Light provides energy to drive photosynthesis but light quality and quantity is also perceived by photoreceptors, which signal to regulate responses enabling plants to adapt to their environment.
