Scientific Interest
In the Plant Quantitative Genomics and Epigenomics laboratory we investigate how new genetic and epigenetic variation are brought about and contribute to heritable phenotypic changes. In particular, we explore the potential role of de novo (epi)mutations generated by transposable element insertions, in the rapid adaptation of populations to drastic environmental changes, such as ongoing climate change. We use molecular, genetic, and computational approaches to characterise very large populations of experimental and wild-type plants.
