An Evening with the Genome Center. Welcome to the Genome Center. Established in 2003, the UC Davis Genome Center uses state-of-art-technologies to understand how the heritable genetic information of diverse organisms function in health and disease. The combination of cutting-edge research facilities, diverse service cores.

The latest news about the ionomics project and thoughts from team members. Monday, September 9, 2013. Ionomics reveals as role for dirigent proteins in lignin deposition. Evidence for proteins in the dirigent family functioning as part of the machinery that builds extracellular lignin-based structures, opening a new avenue to determine the elusive role of this protein family in planta.

Will help to provide support in perpetuity to graduate students and faculty members to advance research in Plant Biology, and honors the late Dr. Giving to the Department of Plant Biology. You can give to the Plant Biology Department or to a specific academic research program.

Plant evolutionary ecology, systematics and speciation. I am a plant evolutionary biologist interested in the biogeography of lineage divergence and the evolution of adaptations promoting ecological specialization. I infer phylogenies and use them as a framework to study processes that drive plant diversity using comparative methods, genomics, field and greenhouse experiments. María José Monteverde, Majo. We are in gorgeous Mexico City.
