Research Position
for Hormonal Crosstalk in the Plant Development Group
About this position:
Applications are invited for a 3,5-year research position in the research group of Helene Robert Boisivon, Ph.D., to join the TowArds Next GENeration Crops (TANGENC) project, reg. number CZ.02.01.01/00/22008/0004581, in Programme Johannes Amos Comenius (Czech Republic - The Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports, co-funded by the European Union).
Our research aims at understanding the effects of endogenous and environmental regulators on plant morphogenesis and seed formation. We perform this work on two plant models: Arabidopsis thaliana and Brassica napus. Our objectives are to identify the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the regulation of hormonal pathways during seed production.
The researcher will be mainly involved in research activities within work package No. 3 - Reproduction (Reproductive Fitness under abiotic stress). H. Robert Boisivon and her group are experts in plant reproduction, focusing on seed development and embryo morphogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana and Brassica napus.
The research group will be involved in project activities 3.3 Effect of heat stress on centromere function in reproductive cells and 3.7 Effect of heat stress on seed formation, size, and quality.
Research Specialist will participate in developing molecular tools and protocols for genome editing, transformation, and plant regeneration.
