The purpose of the laboratory is to develop and apply the technology for activating mobile elements to accelerate the production of new economically valuable phenotypic traits and the creation of promising varieties and hybrids of agricultural plants.
Creation of a panel of markers for new insertions for marker-mediated selection of new traits and genotyping of lines with new transposon insertions
Development of new methods for activating plant mobile elements using RNA technologies and genome editing
Study of the fundamental features of the organization and dynamics of plant mobilome in response to stress
Study of genomic, transcriptomic and epigenetic features of new insertions of transposable elements
