Investigating the role of SUMOylation in meiotic recombination and chromosome segregation in Arabidopsis

University of Leicester Department of Genetics and Genome Biology

Post-translational modifications of proteins such as phosphorylation, methylation and acetylation have been extensively studied in eukaryotes and now the Small Ubiquitin modifier (SUMO) is gaining attention for its importance in fundamental biological roles. Read more

Unlocking the genetic potential of barley by modulating recombination

University of Leicester Department of Genetics and Genome Biology

Barley is a major worldwide crop used for malting and animal feed. However, breeding new varieties is constrained by the frequency of genetic crossovers (1-3 crossovers per chromosome pair) and their distribution (biased towards the chromosome ends) that underpin crop improvement1,2. Read more

Enhancing meiotic recombination in wheat by modulating RECQ helicases

University of Leicester Department of Genetics and Genome Biology

Wheat accounts for 20% of the calories and protein consumed by humans and is the largest crop in the UK, but yields have plateaued and are susceptible to decline due to extreme weather conditions. Read more

A miRNA taming floral homeotic genes

Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology International Max Planck Research School

Background. The floral structure significantly influences the interaction of angiosperms with their environment, not least because it defines the set of species by which plants are pollinated. Read more
