Dissecting the factors controlling seed development in the model legume Medicago truncatula
2012
Legumes are not only indispensible for sustainable agriculture but are also a rich source of protein in food and feed for humans and animals, respectively. However, major proteins stored in legume seeds are poor in sulfur-containing amino acids, and may be accompanied by anti-nutritional factors causing low protein digestibility problems. In this regard, Medicago truncatula serves as a model legume to study legume seed development especially the phase of seed storage protein accumulation. As developing legume seeds are complex structures, a thorough knowledge of the morphogenesis of the seed and the characterization of regulatory mechanisms underlying the embryo development and seed filling…
Etude de la régulation du facteur de transcription ATB2 chez Medicago truncatula

Rapport de stage de Master 2 Spécialité Biologie Intégrative des Interactions Plantes, Microbes, Environnement BAP GEAPSI; Master; Climatic changes since more than a century combined with the urge for better crop yields due to a huge demographic growth and coupled with the need for a more sustainable agriculture led to a number of stresses for plants. Understanding them and their effect on growth, seed quality and seed production of plants is one of the most important agronomical issues of our time. We have chosen to study legumes because they are a major lipid and protein source, as both food and feed, and for their unique ability to absorb the atmospheric nitrogen via a symbiosis with Rhi…
