  11   <p>Our long-term interest has been the regulation of phyllotaxis.
  12   We want to understand at the molecular level, how plants position
  13   their lateral organs in specific spatial patterns, in particular
  14   spirals. We use tomato, because its shoot meristem can be grown
  15   in sterile culture and is amenable to micromanipulation.</p>

  36   <p>A recently started project deals with the molecular ecology of
  37   wild Petunia species. P. axillaris is pollinated by hawkmoths,
  38   while P. integrifolia is pollinated by bees. The two species
  39   differ in flower architecture, color, odor and nectar production.
  40   We have made recombinant inbred lines between each of these
  41   species and the high transposition line Petunia hybrida W138 and
  42   are now in the process of molecular, physiological and ecological
  43   characterization of the material.</p><br clear="all" />
