9. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
A Postdoctoral position is available in the Institute of Bioscience and Biotechnology Research at University of Maryland College Park to study the role of plant mobile mRNAs in the induction of graft induced pathogen resistance. This multi-year position is within Dr. James Culver’s laboratory and will investigate rootstock and scion molecular signals that contribute to defense induction and developmental phenotypes https://doi.org/10.1111/mpp.13353. It is anticipated that results from this study will have broad implications toward understanding desirable graft induced traits as well as developing strategies to engineer theses induced phenotypes into new economically important crop systems.
