Together with several other research groups, we have been involved in the EU SYSFLO project, which finished end of last year. Recently, a nice review was published as the result of the collaborative action of the SYSFLO fellows. It describes progress in understanding the networks that control the major steps in plant reproduction, discussing advances in both experimental and computational technologies. These shed light on the complex gene regulatory networks underlying reproduction,including transcription factors, microRNAs, etc. The PhD in our group who worked on the SYSFLO project, Felipe, is currently close to finishing his thesis. Part of his work is or will be submitted soon, including a paper on flowering time modelling, and a paper on analysis of Arabidopsis ChIP-seq data.
