PhD opportunity in engineering biology, plant science, and gene regulatory networks at the Earlham Institute (Norwich, United Kingdom). This project in the Guiziou Group focuses on decoding the gene regulatory networks that control lateral root initiation in Arabidopsis . The research combines engineering biology , single-cell RNA sequencing , fluorescence microscopy, FACS, and DNA-based recorders based on serine integrase to reconstruct the order of gene expression during lateral root founder c...

PhD opportunity at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, United Kingdom, focused on wheat rust resistance , soil microbial diversity , rhizosphere microbiology , and plant-microbe interactions . The project, led by Prof Diane Saunders , investigates how disruption of wheat susceptibility genes (S-genes) affects root exudation, the wheat rhizosphere microbiome, and sustainable deployment strategies for disease resistance. The research combines field and greenhouse experiments , metagenomics ,...
