Main research interests 

Our laboratory is interested in deciphering the mechanisms of action of regulatory non-coding RNAs in root growth and development. Our results support the notion that a variety of non-coding RNAs through their interaction with specific proteins (such as transcription factors, splicing or chromatin regulators) modulate the developmental adaptation of the root system to the environment
