Biography:
I am a postdoctoral fellow at the Research Institute of Basic Sciences, Seoul National University. I received my Ph.D. in Biology from Chungbuk National University, where I studied the roles of brassinosteroids in drought tolerance and xylem development in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). My current research focuses on molecular mechanisms regulating organ abscission in plants and the hormone signaling networks that control plant development and stress responses. I aim to elucidate key signaling and transcriptional pathways that coordinate cell separation and environmental adaptation in plants.
Title : Coordination of lignin and pectin remodeling by a NAC transcription factor regulates seed abscission in sesame (Sesamum indicum L.)
