Outline

Plant hormones play pivotal role in environmental response by transmitting information from one part to the other parts in plant. I will elucidate the mechanism of how plant hormones work in plant by using chemical probes that illuminate signal perception by plant hormone receptors. This work will provide us the key information for designing plants adaptable to environmental changes.
