Project description:Most of our current knowledge about the molecular events ruling plant-virus interaction come from studies focusing on vascular plants. We here characterized the molecular, cellular and physiological events goberning plant-virus interactions in the non-vascular liverwort Marchantia polymorpha.
Project description:To understand a role of MpMET in maintenance of cytpsine methylation and transposon silencing, we obtained a genome wide profile of 5-methylated cytosine from the Mpmet mutant of a model liverwort, Marchantia polymorpha.
Project description:In order to elucidate the role of the single Marchantia B-GATA ortholog in response to high light intensities, a transcriptomic analysis of Marchantia polymorpha BoGa, Mpb-gata1 mutants and MpB-GATA1ox under high-ligh stress conditions was performed.
