RSB Director's Seminar: Biomineralization of marine calcifiers »
Professor Dorrit Jacob
PS Seminar Series- PhD Exit Seminar- Defining interaction partners for CEPR1, a key regulator of root growth and nutrient transport in Arabidopsis...
The interaction of C-TERMINALLY ENCODED PEPTIDEs (CEPs) with CEP RECEPTOR1 (CEPR1) controls root growth and development, as well as nitrate uptake, but the underlying protein interactions involved are yet to be comprehensively defined.
PS Seminar Series- JOINT SEMINAR - Exploring a new pathway for crown root development »
Crown roots make up the bulk of the mature root system in grasses and are essential for anchorage and water and nutrient absorption.
PS Seminar Series- JOINT SEMINAR - Moisture-regulated root branching »
Plants that exhibit moisture-regulated root branching, called hydropatterning, are able to detect spatial differences in water distribution around their root growth zone, which leads to pre-patterning of lateral root primordia towards regions of higher water availability.
E&E Seminar: The genomics of speciation in the long-tailed finch in the field and laboratory: the role of chromosomal inversions and mito-nuclear...
The long-tailed finch, Poephila acuticauda provides a long-established example of sub-species divergence across the Top-End of Australia based on bill colour, with red-billed birds in the east and yellow-billed birds in the west.
BSB PhD Exit Seminar: Amodiaquine resistance in the malaria parasite – revealing the How »
The antimalarial drug amodiaquine has been around for nearly 60 years during which time it has been deployed as a monotherapy, then removed from recommendations due to toxicity fears, re-instated, and is now deployed in artemisinin-based combinations therapies to combat malaria.
E&E PhD Exit Seminar: An alpine plant’s responses to warming temperatures: from plasticity to molecular pathways »
The climate is warming fast, threatening species persistence and biodiversity. Being sessile, plants must respond and adapt to changing environmental conditions in situ.
PS Seminar Series- PhD Exit Seminar- The flax-rust AvrP protein appears to be a bifunctional effector targeting both glucose and RNA metabolism in...
Rust diseases are a serious threat to cereals and other crops worldwide. The interaction between flax and the flax rust fungus, Melampsora lini, is a model pathosystem helping us to understand the molecular basis of rust fungal pathogenicity in plants.
E&E Seminar: An embryonic perspective on the evolutionary origins of laryngeal echolocation in bats »
Bat echolocation is considered one of the most complex and diverse modes of sensory perception in animals, but its origin and evolutionary history is a highly contentious issue that remains unresolved.
