WELCOME TO THE
ANÉ LAB
Understanding how symbiotic associations between plants and microbes
develop is an important biological question that is particularly
relevant in modern agriculture and economy.
We seek to understand the molecular mechanisms controlling the
establishment of plant - microbe symbioses and the stimulation of plant
growth by microbial signals. Our goal is to maintain soil quality and
sustainability while protecting the environment over the long term and
reducing costs for food and Biofuel production.
We transfer information gained from model plants
such as Medicago
truncatula or Brachypodium distachyon to crops such as soybean, alfalfa
and maize in order to
take full advantage of the fantastic opportunities offered by
these symbiotic associations to our agriculture.
