Plasma Membrane and Mechano-Perception in Plant Development
Research Interest
Mechanical signals and morphogenesis at the plant shoot stem cell niche
Morphogenesis, both at the cell and tissue level, involves mechanical signals that influence specific patterns of gene expression and trigger cytoskeletal reorganisations. How a mechanical stress is perceived and how this signal is transduced into the cell to exert these effects is still poorly understood, and remains a challenging question in both the plant and animal community.

Deciphering the plasma membrane-associated responses to mechanical stress
Plants use their mechanical environment as a signal to trigger molecular responses such as rearrangements in microtubule (MT) dynamics that drive cell wall modifications. More details go to https://uni-tuebingen.de/de/222453
