Post-doctoral Associate University of Maryland, College Park in United States

The TomatoLab at the University of Maryland, College Park is seeking a postdoctoral associate to lead a funded project on a novel gene controlling flowering time in tomato. The researcher will characterize the gene using genetic mapping approaches and validate its function through reverse genetics, including CRISPR-based mutagenesis. The project includes functional assays, gene-expression profiling, and phenotypic characterization of the mutant and other genes associated with flowering time. The...
