  2. Summary. Epigenetic marks superimpose underlying DNA sequence of eukaryotes and provide considerable agility in modulating gene expression. Plants are ideal model systems to study epigenetics since their phenotypes are more likely influenced by epigenetics than among animals.

  3. Aug 5, 2024 · Prof. P.V. Shivaprasad, faculty at NCBS studies gene silencing and epigenetic modifications using plants as model systems. His group’s interests include the biogenesis and functions of small RNAs and the mechanisms that small RNAs and their partner proteins employ to regulate transcription and translation in plants.
