讲座简介：

We are interested in the mechanisms underlying reproductive development. Through a combination of forward and reverse genetic screens in Arabidopsis we have uncovered an essential role for RNA modifications, most likely on long RNAs, during egg and pollen cell development. We have also shown a complex landscape of long non-coding RNAs during endosperm development. Recently, we demonstrated an important role for guanine-N1-methylation on tRNAs during vegetative and reproductive growth stages in Arabidopsis. Collectively, our data is illuminating a complex and essential landscape of non-coding RNAs and RNA modifications during growth and development in plants.
