Fruit development, morphology and evolution driven by a hormonal and genetic pas de deux

How do molecular signalling mechanisms evolve to affect plant development? Join Professor Lars Østergaard, the new Sherardian Professor of Botany at the University of Oxford, as he presents his studies on comparative reproductive tissue development in both crops and non-cultivated plant species. Specifically, his lab group aims to unravel mechanisms of hormonal and genetic interactions responsible for morphological and reproductive diversity.
