PROJECT 1. Regulation of early endosperm development in maize
We are currently collaborating with Dr. Brian Larkins and Ramin Yadegari on a NSF funded project to study the regulation of maize early endosperm development. In this project we are using Illumina high-throughput sequencing to profile the mRNA transcriptome (RNA-Seq) to identify the core transcription factors, and build the regulatory network that controls the maize endosperm development in early stages.
