The IMGN (short for ‘plant ImMunity & GeNomics’) lab within the CGE works on the natural interactions between plants and their microbiota, with a foundation in plant immunity and genomics. We believe that these relationships are at the heart of our planet’s biological fundamentals.
Specifically, the IMGN lab aims to investigate the molecular and physiological interactions between plants and natural microorganisms. We are developing strategies for biologic pollution issues within the soil ecosystem that are caused by modern agricultural practices. Our research is mainly based on four biologic axes: plants, nematodes, bacteria, and viruses.
