מחקר
* שים לב: בגירסה האנגלית של האתר מובא פירוט מלא ומאוייר של מחקרינו.
תחום הגנטיקה המולקולרית בצמחים הוא מעניין ודינמי, גם מבחינה מדעית וגם מהצד היישומי. מעבדתנו מתמחה בצמחים ממשפחת הדלועיים - בעיקר מילון ומלפפון. הפרוייקטים השונים עוסקים בעיקר בשני נושאים:
א) כיצד מתגונן הצמח מפני מחלות ומזיקים? במסגרת זו אנו מבצעים:
1) מיפוי ושיבוט הגן לעמידות לפטריית הפוזריום גזע 2 (גזע 0) במלון, התוקפת את השורשים ומחוללת מחלת נבילה קשה. כן נעשה מיפוי ושיבוט הגן לעמידות לווירוס הפאפאיה ווירוס צהבון הקישוא במלון. המיפוי נעשה בעזרת סמני דנ"א שאנו מפתחים או מיישמים במיגוון של שיטות, ובעזרת אוכלוסיות צמחים בהן מתפצלת העמידות למחלות הנ"ל כתכונה מונוגנית-דומיננטית. מיפוי כזה מספק למטפחי הזנים סמני דנ"א דיאגנוסטיים לאיתור תכונת העמידות בצאצאי ההכלאות שהם מבצעים, והוא הוביל גם לשיבוט הגן לעמידות והבנת דרך פעולתו. בעקבות כך אנו חוקרים את האינטראקציה החלבונית בין חלבוני עמידות לחלבונים של הפתוגן ("אפקטורים). כן ביצענו איפיון גנטי ומיפוי של עמידות לפוזריום גזע 1.2 במלון. זהו גזע נוסף של אותה פטריה אך מנגנון ההורשה של העמידות כמותי, מעורבים בו כנראה מספר גנים.
2) זיהוי מנגנוני הגנה של צמחים כנגד אקרית העיוותים - פרוק-רגליים מיקרוסקופי התוקף טווח גידולים רחב מאוד, ומעט ידוע על תגובת הצמח ודרכי הגנה אפשריות מפניו. אנו מאפיינים את מנגנון הנזק ואת התגובה של הצמח ברמה האנטומית, הביוכימית, וביטוי הגנים, עקב ההתקפה.
ב) כיצד מבקרים בני משפחת הדלועיים את התמיינות פרחי הזכר והנקבה על הצמח? דלועיים מצטיינים במנגנוני התפתחות ייחודיים ומורכבים המווסתים את מין הפרחים. הללו מעניינים גם מבחינה ביולוגית-התפתחותית, גם בגלל חשיבותם בקביעת היבול ובשליטה על ההאבקה. מעבדתנו שיבטה גנים קובעי-מין במלפפון וגילתה כי גנים אלה קשורים לייצור ממוקד של ההורמון אתילן בניצן הפרח.
ג) כיצד מבוקר מספר הפירות שצמח עשוי לחנוט? מדוע חלק מהשחלות המופרות אינן חונטות פרי? אילו הורמונים מבקרים את התהליך? נושא זה נחקר במגוון שיטות כגון צמחים מהונדסים, מוטנטים בגנים של מסלולי הסוכר וההורמונים, ושיטות מעולם הביולוגיה המערכתית.
ד) לימוד השונות הגנטית במין מלון, מין בעל גיוון עצום בתכונות הפרי. בפרוייקט משותף ישראלי-פלסטיני אנו יוצרים ומאפיינים אוסף של זנים מקומיים המהווים משאב גנטי לטיפוח זנים עתידי.

MOLECULAR AND HORMONAL REGULATION OF PLANT DEVELOPMENT (new Course planned for 2013-2014)
2 hrs lecture, jointly with Dr. Hinanit Koltai and Dr. Vered Irihimovitch, ARO
The course discusses major themes in plant development, related to leaf, root, flower and fruit induction and organogenesis. Hormonal signals and molecular mechanisms that orchestrate plant development are emphasized. Students are requested to present mini-seminars related to key research articles, as a basis for in depth discussion of modern methodologies and model plants employed in the field.
