The lab of Ka Wai Ma is inviting application working on plant-microbiota research. The lab is using model system such as Arabidopsis thaliana and the associated culture collection to understand the principles governing plant-microbiota homeostasis. The lab routinely uses omics techniques including amplicon sequencing, transcriptomics and reconstitution system. In addition to general assistance in maintaining the bacterial culture collection, you will work on a project looking at the mechanistic basis of how bacterial microbiota members interfere with the plant immune response.
