Epitranscriptomics and epigenetics in plants stress biology

Our Research Group is interested in plants epitranscriptomic and epigenetic changes driven by aiotic and biotic stress factors.

We are particularly interested in RNA and DNA modifications mediated by reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS).
