Environmental regulation of plant regeneration
How do light, temperature, and nutrient availability shape regenerative competence?
I investigate how environmental conditions influence regenerative competence, cellular reprogramming, and the establishment of new organs.
Light
Resolve how light signals regulate cell-fate decisions and root or shoot formation.
Temperature
Determine how temperature cues modify wound responses and regenerative capacity.
Nutrient availability
Investigate how nutrient status and other environmental inputs are integrated with molecular pathways controlling regeneration.
