Bio
I am intrigued by the heterogeneity in plant-microbe interactions created by different cell types of plants and non-uniform distribution of microbes, which has been difficult to study with tissue level analyses.
The Tatsuya Nobori Group aims to understand molecular and spatiotemporal characteristics of cells comprising the holobiont (the collective entity of the host and surrounding microbes).
We tackle this challenge by developing and incorporating new genomics & imaging technologies tailored for studying plant-microbe interactions.
Our lab will:
(1) characterize the responses and functions of both plant and microbial cells at the single-cell and spatial resolution
(2) link single-cell plant-microbe interactions with holobiont traits
(3) precisely manipulate cells in the holobiont to confer desirable traits.
