Vascular development in Arabidopsis thaliana. The plant vascular system transports water and nutrients as well as regulatory signals like hormones. This tissue also produces wood in some plants. We are using mutational analysis, enhancer trapping, DNA microarrays and proteomics to characterize the molecules involved in the development and function of the vascular system. | ||||||||||||||||

Fibre development in flax and hemp. Microarrays are a new technology for measuring the levels of activity for thousands of genes at once. We are using microarrays to identify genes that are involved with processes like aluminum stress, drought tolerance, and TNT detection in a variety of species. | |||||||||||||||||

Stress genomics and proteomics. Microarrays are a recent technology for measuring the levels of activity for thousands of genes at once. We are using microarrays to identify genes that are involved with processes like aluminum stress, drought tolerance, and TNT detection in a variety of species. We are also using 2D gel electrophoresis, 2D HPLC, and epitope tagging to study the changes in proteins that occur during stress and development. | |||||||||||||||||
