Biography
- I have a wide background on studying the 3D spatial organization of interphase chromatin and epigenetics of wheat and rice genomes.
- Current work has addressed the plasticity of chromatin structure and epigenetic marks, DNA methylation and histone modifications of rice genome in response to environmental challenges.
- I'm interested in intersecting spatial chromatin organization and epigenetic marks at tissue and cell specific level with genome and phenotype regulation.
- Main methodologies have included confocal microscopy, FISH, GISH, ChIP, BS-Seq and chemical compounds or T-DNA-mediated mutagenesis affecting epigenetic regulators.
