Undergrad Zak Hall Presents on Identifying Gene Mutation that Enables Study of Plant Response to Gravity

Undergraduate student Zachary Hall presented a poster on identifying a genetic mutation in the small, mustard-like plant that allows Ohio University researchers to study the gravitational effect on the plant. The research on Identification of the Gene Defective in gravity persistence signal (gps) 6 of Arabidopsis thaliana was co-authored by […]
