In Genomics And Metabolomics Of The Symbiosis Between Tropical Plants And Microbes

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The proposed program of the Canada Research Chair in genomics and metabolomics of the symbiosis between tropical plants and microbes will catalyze the scientific impact of the research program conducted by Dr. Villarreal, curator of the Louis-Marie Herbarium and member of the Institute of Integrative Biology and Systems. The chair will allow the Dr. Villarreal to study the microbiome, genomic underpinnings and chemical richness of the symbiosis between tropical gymnosperms, nitrogen-fixing bacteria and fungi. The chair will establish the core Symbiotic Microbial Group that will attract high-quality students and will make UL a world-renowned center for excellence in symbiotic research.
