Research Group of
Plant Epigenetics and Development
(PI: Ralf Müller-Xing)
Research Group Introduction
Highlights
- Epigenetic control of plant development in Arabidopsis, Populus and Citrus trees
- Epigenetic and chromatin regulation of gene expression by Polycomb (Pc-G) and Trithorax Group (Trx-G) recruiters
- Epigenetic 'Plant-Memory' of extrinsic signals (biotic and abiotic stresses)
- Hormonal and Epigenetic control of De Novo Root Regeneration (DNRR)
In multicellular organisms, epigenetic mechanisms provide stable gene expression patterns that enable the formation of diverse tissues and whole organs. Epigenetic processes cause heritable changes in gene activity that are not caused by changes in the DNA sequence that allows reversibility in response to extrinsic signals and endogenous clues. Hence, epigenetics safeguard transcriptional homeostasis in different tissue types but also promote transcriptional dynamics during plant development. The major epigenetic regulators cause DNA methylation, incorporation of histone variants, or covalent modifications to histone residues such as the repressive mark tri-methylation of Histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) by Polycomb group (Pc-G) proteins.
One of our current research interests is the epigenetic mechanism in 'Plant-Memory' of extrinsic signals such as abiotic and biotic stresses. We started a project with Dr. Xiaokun Liu about ' Epigenetic Stress Memory of bacterial infections.'
Nonetheless, we are continuously working on the epigenetic aspects of plant development. Our current work focuses on, but is not limited to, the role of Pc-G proteins in plant development under non-stress and stress conditions. Our findings and applications will be used to improve crop yields, and to increase food quality and safety.
In collaboration with Dr. Arvind Bhatt, we will investigate the epigenetic mechanisms contribute to complex traits in plant ecology. In these studies, we will merge ecological experiments with epigenetic analyses to reveal the contribution of epigenetics to plant phenotypes, stress responses, adaptation to habitat, and range distributions.
Another of our projects focuses on the Hormonal and Epigenetic control of De Novo Root Regeneration (DNRR) in Arabidopsis, Populus and Citrus trees. Many plant species are able to regenerate adventitious roots (ARs) either directly from aerial organs such as leaves or stems, or indirectly, from over-proliferating tissue termed callus. In agriculture, this capacity of AR formation can be used to clonally propagate several important crop plants. Direct and indirect DNRR originates from the cells of the pluripotent pericycle(-like) and procambium tissue. Independently of their origin, the cells convert into root founder cells, which go through proliferation and differentiation subsequently forming functional root meristems, root primordia, and then complete roots. Recent studies have identi?ed several key regulators building in response to the phytohormone auxin transcriptional networks that are involved in both callus formation and DNRR. Upon wounding, the phytohormone jasmonate works upstream controlling auxin production and accumulation at the site of DNRR. Several other phytohormones are implicated in DNRR but their exact links to the auxin-jasmonate regulatory network of DNRR are still waiting to be discovered. In both, callus formation and DNRR, epigenetic regulation seems essential for the dynamic reprogramming of cell fate, which is correlated with local and global changes of the chromatin states that might ensure the correct spatiotemporal expression pattern of the key regulators (Reviewed in Jing et al. 2020).
Our approaches will investigate in greater detail the network of phytohormones controlling DNRR in Arabidopsis and Populus trichocarpa tree, and how the transcriptional key regulators and the writers, erasers, and readers of epigenetic modi?cations interact during DNRR. This research have the long-term goal to apply the acquired knowledge about DNRR in commercial propagation of economic trees and wooden crops such as kiwifruit.

Career summary
Since the beginning of my career, I have developed a strong interest in the molecular basis of developmental biology in general and more particularly of plants. After a long period of researching signal transduction in meristems, my research focus shifted to the epigenetic control of plant development and epigenetic plant memory of extrinsic signals including abiotic and biotic stress. Hence, I am a developmental plant biologist by training with more than 20 years of laboratory experience and a strong background in epigenetics, stress responses/memory, signal transduction, gene regulatory networks (GRN) and their roles in plant development including de novo root regeneration (DNRR), stem cell maintenance, flowering time, root, flower and leaf development. Over the years, I was working in a wide spectrum of modern molecular and plant biology. I am an expert in the analysis of plant phenotypes and morphological changes as well as the molecular basis of genetic and epigenetic gene regulation in plants. My team at the Lushan Botanical Garden, Jiangxi Province and Chinese Academy of Science (Nanchang, China), works on 'Plant Epigenetics and Development' of Arabidopsis, Populus and economically significant trees. Our current projects include 'Plant-Memory' and 'Hormonal and Epigenetic Control of De Novo Root Regeneration (DNRR).'
