Origin and Diversification of Flowers

http://cwd.huck.psu.edu/evogenflwr.html

Professor of Biology at the Pennsylvania State University. Origin and Diversification of Flowers. A few of the things we have learned from the Floral Genome Project. Include: 1) The floral transcriptome is large - estimated to contain over 10,000 expressed genes in basal as well as more derived dicot and monocot model organisms. Surprisingly, statistical estimates ( Wang et al., 2005. Suggest that the transcriptome may even be larger. Interested in the possibility of research or study in the lab?

Professor of Biology at the Pennsylvania State University. Focuses on three project areas:. The evolution of the flower and the floral developmental program. The study of parasitic plants. Chloroplast genome and phylogenomic evolution. Evolutionary Genomics of the Flower. Was genome duplication an important driver of the diversification of floral developmental pathways? Are there genes that have conserved functions throughout much of flowering plant history? And the availability of genome-scale data and ...

Professor of Biology at the Pennsylvania State University. Molecular Phylogenetics of Scrophulariaceae/Orobanchaceae. Our principal study group, the angiosperms formerly known as the parasitic Scrophulariaceae. Our results have many additional implications for the origin, evolution, and classification of parasitic and nonparasitic Lamiales. Molecular Evolution of Parasitic Plants. Showed that this parasite has a plastid genome that is greatly reduced in size yet still functional. Comparative analysis...
