Identification of host components targeted by the type III effector PopP2 and involved in an R/Avr complex – PERCEPtome
host proteins, especially in the plant nucleus, a battlefield of plant immunity. Despite intensive research [...] either by pathogens to manipulate plant immunity signalling or by host plants to countermeasure their actions [...] Effector-triggered immunity (ETI) is elicited by host plant resistance (R) proteins upon recognition of a cognate
Evolutionary and Functional Genomics of Modified Indole Glucosinolates – EFG-MIG
system is an activated defense system in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana and related species from the [...] the order Brassicales. This system protects plants effectively from most herbivorous insects and other [...] glucosinolates for ecological interactions between plants and their natural enemies has been realized only
Expanding tools for legumes and demonstrating their power in root and symbiotic nodule development studies. – Legumics
Using insertion mutants we are isolating and studying the genes necessary for the development and functioning of the root and symbiotic nodules in the model plant Medicago truncatula.

CHromatin and ROS: Role of Topoisomerase VI-mediated chromatin remodelling in the transcriptional response of plants to singlet oxygen, ROS and abiotic stresses. – CHROS
Molecular mechanisms of plant response and acclimation to environmental stresses. Role of chromatin remodeling factors in the transcriptional response of plants to oxidative and abiotic stresses.
Sustainable rules for managing virus and aphid evolution through host plant resistance – VirAphid
Genetic resistance to pests and pathogens in plants is an essential component of sustainable food production [...] constitute generally efficient methods to control plant bioaggressors and allow drastic reductions of pesticide [...] tackle these issues, we need (i) new methods of plant breeding integrating resistance durability upstream
Biological filtration to reduce trace elements in woody biomass – BIOFILTREE

This project aims [...] the mutual benefit of both organisms, in which plant roots provide habitat, nutrients and exudates to
Impact of the biotrophic transportome on mutualistic plant-fungal interactions. – TRANSMUT
ns will drive plant growth and modulate biomass allocation, that are central to plant yield, a major [...] based on a 'fair-trade' between fungus and host plant. Uptake and exchanges of nutrient and/or metabolites [...] patterns are essential in determining the outcome of plant fungal interactions and in adapting to changes in
