This project investigates the role of a chemical messenger, (p)ppGpp, in plants under stress. By manipulating its levels, researchers aim to understand its impact on plant adaptation, chloroplast development, and photosynthesis, ultimately aiding crop resilience in changing climates.
Under stress bacteria accumulate the potent chemical messenger (p)ppGpp, which drives global changes in transcription that allow the bacteria to adapt and persist.
Remarkably the ability to synthesise (p)ppGpp is conserved in plant chloroplasts, organelles that are descended from an ancient prokaryotic endosymbiont.
However, very little is known about the role (p)ppGpp plays in plants.
We propose to (a) artificially manipulate (p)ppGpp levels and analyse the downstream responses of the plant, an…
