The recent work of my laboratory concentrates in two areas, the origin of developmental patterns in flowers, and the control of cell division in meristems. In our work we use the convenient laboratory plant Arabidopsis thaliana, which allows the parallel use of classical and of molecular genetics. The complete sequence of the Arabidopsis genome has also been determined, making genomic approaches to our scientific problems readily available.
