This project aims to understand the mechanisms of tissue folding in plants, specifically focusing on the apical hook formation. By exploring the interplay of genetic and mechanical factors, it seeks to advance knowledge in developmental biology and its applications in tissue engineering.
Tissue folding plays a key role in the development of all multi-cellular organisms.
The aim of this MSCA-IF fellowship is to decipher the poorly understood mechanisms involved in regulating tissue folding in plants, using the apical hook as a model.
The hook forms via tissue folding driven by differential cell elongation in the embryonic stem (hypocotyl) and is critical for the survival of young seedlings, since it protects the shoot apical meristem from damage as it passes through soil during s…
