In this work , we identify the first plant Fe-chaperones (ICHAP) and determine their role in iron allocation to symbioses.
In collaboration with researchers at Germany and Switzerland, we show that Arabidopsis thaliana uses zinc to combat nectrotophic fungus Plectosphaerella cucumerina. The […]
In collaboration with researchers at USA, Taiwan, and Australia, we show that Medicago truncatula YSL7 is a peptide transporter involved in […]
In a work led by Dr. P. Smith (La Trobe University), we have shown that soybean YSL7 is a symbiosome […]
Our lab is joining the efforts led by Dr. Luis M. Rubio to introduce nitrogen fixation into cereals. This is […]
In a paper published in Mycorrhiza , we show that model legume Medicago truncatula expresses Cu+-transporter MtCOPT2 in arbuscule containing cells. This […]
In a paper published in Journal Experimental Botany, we show that MtYSL3 delivers iron and zinc for symbiotic nitrogen fixation […]
In a work co-directed with Dr. Lucía Jordá (CBGP, UMP-INIA) we show that zinc transported by HMA2 and HMA4 is […]
We have helped Dr. Luis Vidali (Worcester Polytechnic Institute, USA) to test a survival-based RNAi silencing of different gene families […]
In a collaboration with friends from Spain, France, and the USA, we have shown how Medicago truncatula FPN2 protein is […]
In a work directed by Dr. Luis Vidali (Worcester Polytechnic Institute, USA), we show that the calcium-trigered immune response described […]
