Title: Post transcriptional regulation mediated by RNAs in Plants: how does it work under water deficit?
Speaker: Manuel Pedro Salema Fevereiro
Afilliation: Laboratory of Plant Cell Biotechnology
Abstrat:
The first perception that RNA could have an important role in controlling protein accumulation was depicted in plants. Now a day it is a fancy area of research to analyze the post transcriptional regulation of different aspects of plant development and responses to environmental changes. I will briefly describe the known post transcriptional pathways mediated by small RNAs and describe what we have been founding about these mechanisms in a model legume (Medicago truncatula) subjected to water deficit.
