This project focuses on understanding cell communication in plant root development through receptor-like kinases. It aims to identify key components and mechanisms involved in signaling pathways that regulate growth, utilizing advanced techniques in molecular biology.
The past decade researchers have mainly focused on the analyses of phytohormone gradients and mobile transcription factors to explain patterning.
In Arabidopsis, model processes like primary and lateral root development are well understood on the level of transcriptional changes and hormonal control, but very little attention has been given to an alternative way of cell-cell communication using ligand-receptor-like kinase systems (De Smet et al., 2009, Nat Cell Biol, in press).
