Laboratory of Pollen Biology

Laboratory of Pollen Biology of the Institute of Experimental Botany ASCR studies regulatory mechanisms active in the control of gene expression in three research groups at different levels:

    1) genome organisation and stability
    2) transcription regulation - during male gametophyte development
    3) translation regulation and mRNA storage - in pollen and pollen tubes

Experimental model plants for our research are

    1) Arabidopsis thaliana
    2) Nicotiana tabacum
    3) Physcomitrella patens,
         mostly their gametohytic generation
