Institute of Plant Sciences Paris-Saclay (IPS2)

Research unit

Description

The Institute of Plants Sciences Paris-Saclay has a role to better understand the genetic and molecular mechanisms that control the growth of the plant and its regulation by the endogenous and exogenous signals of biotic origin (bacteria and fungi) and abiotic (environmental, nutrients or other). This research combines genomics, molecular and cellular biology, bioinformatics, biochemistry and physiology. The institute has 3 platforms: translational biology, transcriptomic and metabolomic biology, which allows it to position itself on various innovative projects in partnership with the industrial partners to contribute to the agriculture of tomorrow.
