KeywordsMicro-Tom hormone mutants development shoot branching leaf form photomorphogenesis
Research Organismslycopersicon esculentum, lycopersicon hirsutum, lycopersicon pennellii, Lycopersicon pimpinellifolium, Lycopersicon cheesmanii f. minor
InterestsStudy of hormonal control of plant development (shoot branching, in vitro shoot formation, leaf form) using mutants (e.g. hormone, phytochrome, MADboxes, Homeo boxes) and monogenic natural variation introgressed or created (by mutagenesis of plant transformation) into the Micro-Tom background. The relationship between plant development and stress responses (e.g. drought and salinity) is also of interest.
