In their study, they demonstrate that genetic variation in chloroplast and mitochondrial DNA plays a key role in the variation in photosynthesis among Arabidopsis thaliana (thale cress ...

As a post-doc, he spent fourteen years in Boston, USA, in Jen Sheen’s lab at Harvard / MGH, to study the involvement of MAP kinases in plant defence signalling and abiotic stress in Arabidopsis ...

Chloroplasts are the principal cell structures ... The team also inserted BOOSTER in a different plant, Arabidopsis, or thale cress, resulting in an increase in biomass and seed production.
