Abstract
This project takes a synthetic biology approach into the data-driven sector of plant molecular biology. It is our aim to create a platform technology, which can be used to deliver a variety of synthetic effectors to whole plants, making subsequent use of fluorescent sorting methods to examine the effects on a singlecell scale: without using transgenic methods. My objective is to provide proof of- concept for this technology, which will be highly useful in our group’s progress in engineering nitrogen-fixing nodulation into non-legume plants.
