RESEARCH: Evolution of carnivorous plants (6) Development and evolution of Nepenthes pitcher leaves
We started genome analysis of Nepenthes species and graduate students who are interesetd in studying development and evolution of Nepenthes pitcher leaves are welcome.
Pitcher leaves in Nepenthes
- Development of carnivorous pitcher leaves of Sarracenia purpurea
- Evolution of digestive enzymes
- Molecular Mechanisms of Memory of Dionaea muscipula leaves
(link to "Mechanisms and evolution of plant movement") - Molecular mechanisms of plasticity in Cephalotus follicularis
- Genome analysis of Drosera spatulata and development and evolution of tentacles, and homology between Drosera and Dionaea traps.
