Determining the Gene Control of Stress Hormones in Plants

Student Name: Yuki Koide
UCD Department: Plant Biology
UCD Mentor: Dr. Dehesh

Locating a gene that controls the expression of stress hormones in plants. This research will help current understanding of various stress responses in plants and what they have in common. It might be applied in the future to genetically engineer plants that are resistant to multiple stresses, such as drought or insect attacks.
