Research project Understanding plant biomass formation

The "Cell differentiation and coordination in tissues" group investigates the formation and organization of the plant carbon biomass that is accumulated in plant cell walls.

The "Cell differentiation and coordination in tissues" group investigates the formation and organization of the plant carbon biomass that is accumulated in plant cell walls. We mainly focus on the molecular mechanisms controlling changes in cell wall composition (mostly lignin) and organization (mostly through microtubule guidance).
                
Discover more about recent breakthroughs in identifying the molecular mechanism controlling cell wall composition and organization under "publications".
