Hook

Participants : Christophe Godin, Olivier Ali.

A new collaboration started with the University of Umeä (Sweden) on the modeling of the apical hook in the hypocotyl of Arabidopsis thaliana. The question we want to answer is what regulates the opening dynamics of the apical hook at the tip of the hypocotyl and how. For this, a multidisciplinary approach, combining 3D laser imaging, molecular biology, genetics and modeling will be developed by the partners.

Partners: University of Umeä, RDP ENS-Lyon.
