RESEARCH SUBJECTS

I am studying the molecular bases of adaptation to the host plant in the plant pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum using an experimental evolution approach. For that purpose, the GMI1000 strain was evolved by serial passage experiments on a fixed plant line during more than 300 generations. This experiment was conducted on 5 different plant species, and 5 evolved bacterial lineages per plant were generated. I am analyzing both genetic and epigenetic modifications involved in adaptive processes.
