Research highlight
Our group is interested in the shoot meristem, a stem cell containing tissue that is responsible for generating most shoot organs during plant lifetime. By focusing on the functions of a set of transcription factors, we are elucidating molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation of growth and morphogenesis during shoot development.
