PhD in Plant Temperature Signalling via Modulation of Small-RNA Signalling John Innes Centre in United Kingdom

EASTBIO PhD opportunity at the University of Dundee in plant science, with a focus on how cereals make their skin: plant surface development, cuticle formation, epidermal cell differentiation, and stress resilience in barley. The project explores how land plants coordinate protective surface features such as the waxy cuticle, gas pores, and defensive epidermal structures. Using barley as the model system, the research will combine biochemical and molecular biology approaches with CRISPR-Cas gene...

Fully funded PhD position in plant epigenetics and periderm formation under stress at the University of Perpignan Via Domitia in France, within the Plant Genome and Development Laboratory (LGDP) and co-hosted by the University of Girona's Cork Laboratory . This opportunity is a strong fit for students interested in plant biology , molecular biology , biochemistry , genomics , plant physiology , and stress-related developmental processes. The project focuses on how plants form periderm under stre...

PhD opportunity at the University of Dundee / James Hutton Institute in plant science, focusing on how plants respond to warming temperatures and how temperature controls stomata development. The project, “EASTBIO - How Plants Breathe in a Warming World: Temperature Control of Stomata Development,” is based in Dundee, United Kingdom, and is supervised by Dr Martin Balcerowicz and Dr Sarah McKim. It investigates thermomorphogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana and explores whether similar hormonal reg...

University of Warwick is advertising a Research Fellow position in the School of Life Sciences in Coventry, United Kingdom . The project focuses on plant architecture , especially the regulation of axillary meristem formation and cereal crop development in wheat and other grasses. The research aims to identify upstream components and key regulatory factors in a newly discovered transcriptional pathway, using computational , transcriptomic , molecular genetic , epigenetic , and phenomics approach...

PhD opportunity at the University of Dundee in plant parasite effectors , host-parasite interactions , and nanobody-based tools . This EASTBIO/BBSRC-funded project is hosted in the groups of Dr Jorunn Bos and Prof Paul Birch in the Department of Plant Sciences at the University of Dundee , with links to the James Hutton Institute. The project focuses on developing new tools to study how plant parasites deliver and use effector molecules during infection/infestation, and how these effectors inter...
