WG 1 Molecular

Nuclear regulation by UV-B radiation (WG 1)

This WG will produce a coherent vision of the molecular mechanisms underlying regulatory, UV-B-mediated control of growth. The emerging picture indicates that UV-B responses are controlled at two levels, at the level of gene expression and via a number of different regulatory circuits. This WG will generate a better understanding of UV-B perception, signal transduction, cell cycle adjustments, DNA and histone modification and transcription regulation, and will create opportunities to adjust growth, yield, and quality and stress tolerance of crops.
