Description | We have initiated this work with a Chinese lab who are experts in reactive oxygen generation and signalling in the chloroplast. The access to their mutants and expertise has allowed us to already begin to formulate new hypotheses. This has led to the acceptance of writing a joint review for the prestigious Annual Review of Plant Pathology. |
