  • Research:
    Working towards an understanding of specialized metabolism in secretory glandular trichomes of tomato and related wild species in Solanum

    Plants make a diverse array of natural products that can play a role in response to biotic and abiotic interactions and many have significant value as pharmaceuticals, fragrances, and food additives. The aerial surface of many plants contain multicellular epidermal protuberances called trichomes that have the capacity to produce and either store or secrete copious amounts of the specialized metabolites. We are working towards elucidating the biochemical pathways operating in Solanum trichomes using a combination of genomic, genetic, and biochemical approaches.
