How are cell fates specified in heterogeneous callus cell population undergoing shoot regeneration? We tackled this long-standing question using Quartz-Seq2 and by focusing on two WOX TFs. Check out our latest publication in Science Advances!!
Callus develop from wound sites, but why do the two cut ends behave differently? We found that cutting organs disrupts auxin flow, which regulates WOX13 expression and give rise to differential callus formation. We published this article in the special issue of plant stem cells of Plant and Cell Physiology! This is …
Momoko is newly appointed as an associate professor at NAIST, and excited about the new adventure here!
We identified WOX13 as a key regulator of callus formation and tissue repair. Here is the link to the open access article published in Plant Physiologyhttps://academic.oup.com/plphys/article/188/1/425/6420229
Co-authored review article is published in Plant Journal. Please find out our perspective on plant stem cells in the link (open access)
Three undergrads have started in the lab. I hope they will share excitements of science with us : )
Excited to announce that Momoko is newly appointed as an Associated Professor at Niigata University!
