Our Research
Click below to find out more about research in the Rose lab. Current projects include a multi-group investigation into cell- and tissue-type specific gene expression and molecular processes in tomato fruit.
Researchers in the Rose lab study the formation, function, and evolution of plant structural polymers, as well as associated extracellular processes. We use a broad range of approaches, technologies and experimental systems, from algae to tomato fruit, to investigate how cell wall polysaccharides, hydrophobic cuticles (plant ‘skins’) and secreted proteins and metabolites influence plant development and environmental responses.
