Research Overview
The Zander Lab investigates the responsiveness of the plant epigenome to environmental cues focusing on the mechanisms through which transcription factors reshape the chromatin landscape at their target genes. This knowledge will enable engineering of transcription factor functions to advance precision breeding efforts.
The research focusses on two mains areas:
1. Investigating the transcription factor - chromatin regulator interface in plant-environment interactions
2. Technology development to facilitate genomics-driven research in transcriptional regulation
