GENETICS OF PHYTOBACTERIAL INFECTIONS
GENETICS OF PHYTOBACTERIAL INFECTIONS
The interest of the group focuses on the identification of molecular mechanisms that allow the establishment of bacterial infections in plants. We investigate several aspects related to bacterial life on surfaces using the Sinorhizobium meliloti-Medicago sativa interaction as a model system and a multidisciplinary approach that involves the use of bacterial genetics and Omics technologies.
