text: Triangle mesh-based simulations are able to produce satisfying animations
of knitted and woven cloth; however, they lack the rich geometric detail of yarn-level
simulations. Naive texturing approaches do not consider yarn-level physics, while
full yarn-level simulations may become prohibitively expensive for large garments.
We propose a method to animate yarn-level cloth geometry on top of an underlying
deforming mesh in a mechanics-aware fashion. Using triangle strains to interpolate
precomputed yarn geometry, we are able to reproduce effects such as knit loops
tightening under stretching. In combination with precomputed mesh animation or
real-time mesh simulation, our method is able to animate yarn-level cloth in real-time
at large scales.

text: "Automated contract tracing aims at supporting manual contact tracing during
pandemics by alerting users of encounters with infected people. There are currently
many proposals for protocols (like the “decentralized” DP-3T and PACT or the “centralized”
ROBERT and DESIRE) to be run on mobile phones, where the basic idea is to regularly
broadcast (using low energy Bluetooth) some values, and at the same time store
(a function of) incoming messages broadcasted by users in their proximity. In
the existing proposals one can trigger false positives on a massive scale by an
“inverse-Sybil” attack, where a large number of devices (malicious users or hacked
phones) pretend to be the same user, such that later, just a single person needs
to be diagnosed (and allowed to upload) to trigger an alert for all users who
were in proximity to any of this large group of devices.\r\n\r\nWe propose the
first protocols that do not succumb to such attacks assuming the devices involved
in the attack do not constantly communicate, which we observe is a necessary assumption.
The high level idea of the protocols is to derive the values to be broadcasted
by a hash chain, so that two (or more) devices who want to launch an inverse-Sybil
attack will not be able to connect their respective chains and thus only one of
them will be able to upload. Our protocols also achieve security against replay,
belated replay, and one of them even against relay attacks."

text: 'Many security definitions come in two flavors: a stronger “adaptive” flavor,
where the adversary can arbitrarily make various choices during the course of
the attack, and a weaker “selective” flavor where the adversary must commit to
some or all of their choices a-priori. For example, in the context of identity-based
encryption, selective security requires the adversary to decide on the identity
of the attacked party at the very beginning of the game whereas adaptive security
allows the attacker to first see the master public key and some secret keys before
making this choice. Often, it appears to be much easier to achieve selective security
than it is to achieve adaptive security. A series of several recent works shows
how to cleverly achieve adaptive security in several such scenarios including
generalized selective decryption [Pan07][FJP15], constrained PRFs [FKPR14], and
Yao’s garbled circuits [JW16]. Although the above works expressed vague intuition
that they share a common technique, the connection was never made precise. In
this work we present a new framework (published at Crypto ’17 [JKK+17a]) that
connects all of these works and allows us to present them in a unified and simplified
fashion. Having the framework in place, we show how to achieve adaptive security
for proxy re-encryption schemes (published at PKC ’19 [FKKP19]) and provide the
first adaptive security proofs for continuous group key agreement protocols (published
at S&P ’21 [KPW+21]). Questioning optimality of our framework, we then show that
currently used proof techniques cannot lead to significantly better security guarantees
for "graph-building" games (published at TCC ’21 [KKPW21a]). These games cover
generalized selective decryption, as well as the security of prominent constructions
for constrained PRFs, continuous group key agreement, and proxy re-encryption.
Finally, we revisit the adaptive security of Yao’s garbled circuits and extend
the analysis of Jafargholi and Wichs in two directions: While they prove adaptive
security only for a modified construction with increased online complexity, we
provide the first positive results for the original construction by Yao (published
at TCC ’21 [KKP21a]). On the negative side, we prove that the results of Jafargholi
and Wichs are essentially optimal by showing that no black-box reduction can provide
a significantly better security bound (published at Crypto ’21 [KKPW21c]).'

text: "The quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) is a prospective near-term
quantum algorithm due to its modest circuit depth and promising benchmarks. However,
an external parameter optimization required in the QAOA could become a performance
bottleneck. This motivates studies of the optimization landscape and search for
heuristic ways of parameter initialization. In this work we visualize the optimization
landscape of the QAOA applied to the MaxCut problem on random graphs, demonstrating
that random initialization of the QAOA is prone to converging to local minima
with suboptimal performance. We introduce the initialization of QAOA parameters
based on the Trotterized quantum annealing (TQA) protocol, parameterized by the
Trotter time step. We find that the TQA initialization allows to circumvent\r\nthe
issue of false minima for a broad range of time steps, yielding the same performance
as the best result out of an exponentially scaling number of random initializations.
Moreover, we demonstrate that the optimal value of the time step coincides with
the point of proliferation of Trotter errors in quantum annealing. Our results
suggest practical ways of initializing QAOA protocols on near-term quantum devices
and reveal new connections between QAOA and quantum annealing."

text: Although much is known about how single neurons in the hippocampus represent
an animal’s position, how cell-cell interactions contribute to spatial coding
remains poorly understood. Using a novel statistical estimator and theoretical
modeling, both developed in the framework of maximum entropy models, we reveal
highly structured cell-to-cell interactions whose statistics depend on familiar
vs. novel environment. In both conditions the circuit interactions optimize the
encoding of spatial information, but for regimes that differ in the signal-to-noise
ratio of their spatial inputs. Moreover, the topology of the interactions facilitates
linear decodability, making the information easy to read out by downstream circuits.
These findings suggest that the efficient coding hypothesis is not applicable
only to individual neuron properties in the sensory periphery, but also to neural
interactions in the central brain.

text: "Indirect reciprocity in evolutionary game theory is a prominent mechanism
for explaining the evolution of cooperation among unrelated individuals. In contrast
to direct reciprocity, which is based on individuals meeting repeatedly, and conditionally
cooperating by using their own experiences, indirect reciprocity is based on individuals’
reputations. If a player helps another, this increases the helper’s public standing,
benefitting them in the future. This lets cooperation in the population emerge
without individuals having to meet more than once. While the two modes of reciprocity
are intertwined, they are difficult to compare. Thus, they are usually studied
in isolation. Direct reciprocity can maintain cooperation with simple strategies,
and is robust against noise even when players do not remember more\r\nthan their
partner’s last action. Meanwhile, indirect reciprocity requires its successful
strategies, or social norms, to be more complex. Exhaustive search previously
identified eight such norms, called the “leading eight”, which excel at maintaining
cooperation. However, as the first result of this thesis, we show that the leading
eight break down once we remove the fundamental assumption that information is
synchronized and public, such that everyone agrees on reputations. Once we consider
a more realistic scenario of imperfect information, where reputations are private,
and individuals occasionally misinterpret or miss observations, the leading eight
do not promote cooperation anymore. Instead, minor initial disagreements can proliferate,
fragmenting populations into subgroups. In a next step, we consider ways to mitigate
this issue. We first explore whether introducing “generosity” can stabilize cooperation
when players use the leading eight strategies in noisy environments. This approach
of modifying strategies to include probabilistic elements for coping with errors
is known to work well in direct reciprocity. However, as we show here, it fails
for the more complex norms of indirect reciprocity. Imperfect information still
prevents cooperation from evolving. On the other hand, we succeeded to show in
this thesis that modifying the leading eight to use “quantitative assessment”,
i.e. tracking reputation scores on a scale beyond good and bad, and making overall
judgments of others based on a threshold, is highly successful, even when noise
increases in the environment. Cooperation can flourish when reputations\r\nare
more nuanced, and players have a broader understanding what it means to be “good.”
Finally, we present a single theoretical framework that unites the two modes of
reciprocity despite their differences. Within this framework, we identify a novel
simple and successful strategy for indirect reciprocity, which can cope with noisy
environments and has an analogue in direct reciprocity. We can also analyze decision
making when different sources of information are available. Our results help highlight
that for sustaining cooperation, already the most simple rules of reciprocity
can be sufficient."

text: "Blood – this is what animals use to heal wounds fast and efficient. Plants
do not have blood circulation and their cells cannot move. However, plants have
evolved remarkable capacities to regenerate tissues and organs preventing further
damage. In my PhD research, I studied the wound healing in the Arabidopsis root.
I used a UV laser to ablate single cells in the root tip and observed the consequent
wound healing. Interestingly, the inner adjacent cells induced a\r\ndivision plane
switch and subsequently adopted the cell type of the killed cell to replace it.
We termed this form of wound healing “restorative divisions”. This initial observation
triggered the questions of my PhD studies: How and why do cells orient their division
planes, how do they feel the wound and why does this happen only in inner adjacent
cells.\r\nFor answering these questions, I used a quite simple experimental setup:
5 day - old seedlings were stained with propidium iodide to visualize cell walls
and dead cells; ablation was carried out using a special laser cutter and a confocal
microscope. Adaptation of the novel vertical microscope system made it possible
to observe wounds in real time. This revealed that restorative divisions occur
at increased frequency compared to normal divisions. Additionally,\r\nthe major
plant hormone auxin accumulates in wound adjacent cells and drives the expression
of the wound-stress responsive transcription factor ERF115. Using this as a marker
gene for wound responses, we found that an important part of wound signalling
is the sensing of the collapse of the ablated cell. The collapse causes a radical
pressure drop, which results in strong tissue deformations. These deformations
manifest in an invasion of the now free spot specifically by the inner adjacent
cells within seconds, probably because of higher pressure of the inner tissues.
Long-term imaging revealed that those deformed cells continuously expand towards
the wound hole and that this is crucial for the restorative division. These wound-expanding
cells exhibit an abnormal, biphasic polarity of microtubule arrays\r\nbefore the
division. Experiments inhibiting cell expansion suggest that it is the biphasic
stretching that induces those MT arrays. Adapting the micromanipulator aspiration
system from animal scientists at our institute confirmed the hypothesis that stretching
influences microtubule stability. In conclusion, this shows that microtubules
react to tissue deformation\r\nand this facilitates the observed division plane
switch. This puts mechanical cues and tensions at the most prominent position
for explaining the growth and wound healing properties of plants. Hence, it shines
light onto the importance of understanding mechanical signal transduction. "

on social norms. This mechanism requires that individuals in a population observe
and judge each other’s behaviors. Individuals with a good reputation are more
likely to receive help from others. Previous work suggests that indirect reciprocity
is only effective when all relevant information is reliable and publicly available.
Otherwise, individuals may disagree on how to assess others, even if they all
apply the same social norm. Such disagreements can lead to a breakdown of cooperation.
Here we explore whether the predominantly studied ‘leading eight’ social norms
of indirect reciprocity can be made more robust by equipping them with an element
of generosity. To this end, we distinguish between two kinds of generosity. According
to assessment generosity, individuals occasionally assign a good reputation to
group members who would usually be regarded as bad. According to action generosity,
individuals occasionally cooperate with group members with whom they would usually
defect. Using individual-based simulations, we show that the two kinds of generosity
have a very different effect on the resulting reputation dynamics. Assessment
generosity tends to add to the overall noise and allows defectors to invade. In
contrast, a limited amount of action generosity can be beneficial in a few cases.
However, even when action generosity is beneficial, the respective simulations
do not result in full cooperation. Our results suggest that while generosity can
favor cooperation when individuals use the most simple strategies of reciprocity,
it is disadvantageous when individuals use more complex social norms.

text: Direct and indirect reciprocity are key mechanisms for the evolution of cooperation.
Direct reciprocity means that individuals use their own experience to decide whether
to cooperate with another person. Indirect reciprocity means that they also consider
the experiences of others. Although these two mechanisms are intertwined, they
are typically studied in isolation. Here, we introduce a mathematical framework
that allows us to explore both kinds of reciprocity simultaneously. We show that
the well-known ‘generous tit-for-tat’ strategy of direct reciprocity has a natural
analogue in indirect reciprocity, which we call ‘generous scoring’. Using an equilibrium
analysis, we characterize under which conditions either of the two strategies
can maintain cooperation. With simulations, we additionally explore which kind
of reciprocity evolves when members of a population engage in social learning
to adapt to their environment. Our results draw unexpected connections between
direct and indirect reciprocity while highlighting important differences regarding
their evolvability.

text: Spin qubits are considered to be among the most promising candidates for building
a quantum processor. Group IV hole spin qubits have moved into the focus of interest
due to the ease of operation and compatibility with Si technology. In addition,
Ge offers the option for monolithic superconductor-semiconductor integration.
Here we demonstrate a hole spin qubit operating at fields below 10 mT, the critical
field of Al, by exploiting the large out-of-plane hole g-factors in planar Ge
and by encoding the qubit into the singlet-triplet states of a double quantum
dot. We observe electrically controlled X and Z-rotations with tunable frequencies
exceeding 100 MHz and dephasing times of 1μs which we extend beyond 15μs with
echo techniques. These results show that Ge hole singlet triplet qubits outperform
their electronic Si and GaAs based counterparts in speed and coherence, respectively.
In addition, they are on par with Ge single spin qubits, but can be operated at
much lower fields underlining their potential for on chip integration with superconducting
technologies.

text: "Plants maintain the capacity to develop new organs e.g. lateral roots post-embryonically
throughout their whole life and thereby flexibly adapt to ever-changing environmental
conditions. Plant hormones auxin and cytokinin are the main regulators of the
lateral root organogenesis. Additionally to their solo activities, the interaction
between auxin and\r\ncytokinin plays crucial role in fine-tuning of lateral root
development and growth. In particular, cytokinin modulates auxin distribution
within the developing lateral root by affecting the endomembrane trafficking of
auxin transporter PIN1 and promoting its vacuolar degradation (Marhavý et al.,
2011, 2014). This effect is independent of transcription and\r\ntranslation. Therefore,
it suggests novel, non-canonical cytokinin activity occuring possibly on the posttranslational
level. Impact of cytokinin and other plant hormones on auxin transporters (including
PIN1) on the posttranslational level is described in detail in the introduction
part of this thesis in a form of a review (Semeradova et al., 2020). To gain insights
into the molecular machinery underlying cytokinin effect on the endomembrane trafficking
in the plant cell, in particular on the PIN1 degradation, we conducted two large
proteomic screens: 1) Identification of cytokinin binding proteins using\r\nchemical
proteomics. 2) Monitoring of proteomic and phosphoproteomic changes upon cytokinin
treatment. In the first screen, we identified DYNAMIN RELATED PROTEIN 2A (DRP2A).
We found that DRP2A plays a role in cytokinin regulated processes during the plant
growth and that cytokinin treatment promotes destabilization of DRP2A protein.
However, the role of DRP2A in the PIN1 degradation remains to be elucidated. In
the second screen, we found VACUOLAR PROTEIN SORTING 9A (VPS9A). VPS9a plays crucial
role in plant’s response to cytokin and in cytokinin mediated PIN1 degradation.
Altogether, we identified proteins, which bind to cytokinin and proteins that
in response to\r\ncytokinin exhibit significantly changed abundance or phosphorylation
pattern. By combining information from these two screens, we can pave our way
towards understanding of noncanonical cytokinin effects."

text: 'Quantum information and computation has become a vast field paved with opportunities
for researchers and investors. As large multinational companies and international
funds are heavily investing in quantum technologies it is still a question which
platform is best suited for the task of realizing a scalable quantum processor.
In this work we investigate hole spins in Ge quantum wells. These hold great promise
as they possess several favorable properties: a small effective mass, a strong
spin-orbit coupling, long relaxation time and an inherent immunity to hyperfine
noise. All these characteristics helped Ge hole spin qubits to evolve from a single
qubit to a fully entangled four qubit processor in only 3 years. Here, we investigated
a qubit approach leveraging the large out-of-plane g-factors of heavy hole states
in Ge quantum dots. We found this qubit to be reproducibly operable at extremely
low magnetic field and at large speeds while maintaining coherence. This was possible
because large differences of g-factors in adjacent dots can be achieved in the
out-of-plane direction. In the in-plane direction the small g-factors, on the
other hand, can be altered very effectively by the confinement potentials. Here,
we found that this can even lead to a sign change of the g-factors. The resulting
g-factor difference alters the dynamics of the system drastically and produces
effects typically attributed to a spin-orbit induced spin-flip term. The investigations
carried out in this thesis give further insights into the possibilities of holes
in Ge and reveal new physical properties that need to be considered when designing
future spin qubit experiments.'

text: Left-right asymmetries can be considered a fundamental organizational principle
of the vertebrate central nervous system. The hippocampal CA3-CA1 pyramidal cell
synaptic connection shows an input-side dependent asymmetry where the hemispheric
location of the presynaptic CA3 neuron determines the synaptic properties. Left-input
synapses terminating on apical dendrites in stratum radiatum have a higher density
of NMDA receptor subunit GluN2B, a lower density of AMPA receptor subunit GluA1
and smaller areas with less often perforated PSDs. On the other hand, left-input
synapses terminating on basal dendrites in stratum oriens have lower GluN2B densities
than right-input ones. Apical and basal synapses further employ different signaling
pathways involved in LTP. SDS-digested freeze-fracture replica labeling can visualize
synaptic membrane proteins with high sensitivity and resolution, and has been
used to reveal the asymmetry at the electron microscopic level. However, it requires
time-consuming manual demarcation of the synaptic surface for quantitative measurements.
To facilitate the analysis of replica labeling, I first developed a software named
Darea, which utilizes deep-learning to automatize this demarcation. With Darea
I characterized the synaptic distribution of NMDA and AMPA receptors as well as
the voltage-gated Ca2+ channels in CA1 stratum radiatum and oriens. Second, I
explored the role of GluN2B and its carboxy-terminus in the establishment of input-side
dependent hippocampal asymmetry. In conditional knock-out mice lacking GluN2B
expression in CA1 and GluN2B-2A swap mice, where GluN2B carboxy-terminus was exchanged
to that of GluN2A, no significant asymmetries of GluN2B, GluA1 and PSD area were
detected. We further discovered a previously unknown functional asymmetry of GluN2A,
which was also lost in the swap mouse. These results demonstrate that GluN2B carboxy-terminus
plays a critical role in normal formation of input-side dependent asymmetry.

text: Accumulation of interstitial fluid (IF) between embryonic cells is a common
phenomenon in vertebrate embryogenesis. Unlike other model systems, where these
accumulations coalesce into a large central cavity – the blastocoel, in zebrafish,
IF is more uniformly distributed between the deep cells (DC) before the onset
of gastrulation. This is likely due to the presence of a large extraembryonic
structure – the yolk cell (YC) at the position where the blastocoel typically
forms in other model organisms. IF has long been speculated to play a role in
tissue morphogenesis during embryogenesis, but direct evidence supporting such
function is still sparse. Here we show that the relocalization of IF to the interface
between the YC and DC/epiblast is critical for axial mesendoderm (ME) cell protrusion
formation and migration along this interface, a key process in embryonic axis
formation. We further demonstrate that axial ME cell migration and IF relocalization
engage in a positive feedback loop, where axial ME migration triggers IF accumulation
ahead of the advancing axial ME tissue by mechanically compressing the overlying
epiblast cell layer. Upon compression, locally induced flow relocalizes the IF
through the porous epiblast tissue resulting in an IF accumulation ahead of the
leading axial ME. This IF accumulation, in turn, promotes cell protrusion formation
and migration of the leading axial ME cells, thereby facilitating axial ME extension.
Our findings reveal a central role of dynamic IF relocalization in orchestrating
germ layer morphogenesis during gastrulation.

text: Bacteria-host interactions represent a continuous trade-off between benefit
and risk. Thus, the host immune response is faced with a non-trivial problem –
accommodate beneficial commensals and remove harmful pathogens. This is especially
difficult as molecular patterns, such as lipopolysaccharide or specific surface
organelles such as pili, are conserved in both, commensal and pathogenic bacteria.
Type 1 pili, tightly regulated by phase variation, are considered an important
virulence factor of pathogenic bacteria as they facilitate invasion into host
cells. While invasion represents a de facto passive mechanism for pathogens to
escape the host immune response, we demonstrate a fundamental role of type 1 pili
as active modulators of the innate and adaptive immune response.

text: The brain is one of the largest and most complex organs and it is composed
of billions of neurons that communicate together enabling e.g. consciousness.
The cerebral cortex is the largest site of neural integration in the central nervous
system. Concerted radial migration of newly born cortical projection neurons,
from their birthplace to their final position, is a key step in the assembly of
the cerebral cortex. The cellular and molecular mechanisms regulating radial neuronal
migration in vivo are however still unclear. Recent evidence suggests that distinct
signaling cues act cell-autonomously but differentially at certain steps during
the overall migration process. Moreover, functional analysis of genetic mosaics
(mutant neurons present in wild-type/heterozygote environment) using the MADM
(Mosaic Analysis with Double Markers) analyses in comparison to global knockout
also indicate a significant degree of non-cell-autonomous and/or community effects
in the control of cortical neuron migration. The interactions of cell-intrinsic
(cell-autonomous) and cell-extrinsic (non-cell-autonomous) components are largely
unknown. In part of this thesis work we established a MADM-based experimental
strategy for the quantitative analysis of cell-autonomous gene function versus
non-cell-autonomous and/or community effects. The direct comparison of mutant
neurons from the genetic mosaic (cell-autonomous) to mutant neurons in the conditional
and/or global knockout (cell-autonomous + non-cell-autonomous) allows to quantitatively
analyze non-cell-autonomous effects. Such analysis enable the high-resolution
analysis of projection neuron migration dynamics in distinct environments with
concomitant isolation of genomic and proteomic profiles. Using these experimental
paradigms and in combination with computational modeling we show and characterize
the nature of non-cell-autonomous effects to coordinate radial neuron migration.
Furthermore, this thesis discusses recent developments in neurodevelopment with
focus on neuronal polarization and non-cell-autonomous mechanisms in neuronal
migration.

text: "Cytoplasmic reorganizations are essential for morphogenesis. In large cells
like oocytes, these reorganizations become crucial in patterning the oocyte for
later stages of embryonic development. Ascidians oocytes reorganize their cytoplasm
(ooplasm) in a spectacular manner. Ooplasmic reorganization is initiated at fertilization
with the contraction of the actomyosin cortex along the animal-vegetal axis of
the oocyte, driving the accumulation of cortical endoplasmic reticulum (cER),
maternal mRNAs associated to it and a mitochondria-rich subcortical layer – the
myoplasm – in a region of the vegetal pole termed contraction pole (CP). Here
we have used the species Phallusia mammillata to investigate the changes in cell
shape that accompany these reorganizations and the mechanochemical mechanisms
underlining CP formation.\r\nWe report that the length of the animal-vegetal (AV)
axis oscillates upon fertilization: it first undergoes a cycle of fast elongation-lengthening
followed by a slow expansion of mainly the vegetal pole (VP) of the cell. We show
that the fast oscillation corresponds to a dynamic polarization of the actin cortex
as a result of a fertilization-induced increase in cortical tension in the oocyte
that triggers a rupture of the cortex at the animal pole and the establishment
of vegetal-directed cortical flows. These flows are responsible for the vegetal
accumulation of actin causing the VP to flatten. \r\nWe find that the slow expansion
of the VP, leading to CP formation, correlates with a relaxation of the vegetal
cortex and that the myoplasm plays a role in the expansion. We show that the myoplasm
is a solid-like layer that buckles under compression forces arising from the contracting
actin cortex at the VP. Straightening of the myoplasm when actin flows stops,
facilitates the expansion of the VP and the CP. Altogether, our results present
a previously unrecognized role for the myoplasm in ascidian ooplasmic segregation.

text: Nitrate commands genome-wide gene expression changes that impact metabolism,
physiology, plant growth, and development. In an effort to identify new components
involved in nitrate responses in plants, we analyze the Arabidopsis thaliana root
phosphoproteome in response to nitrate treatments via liquid chromatography coupled
to tandem mass spectrometry. 176 phosphoproteins show significant changes at 5
or 20 min after nitrate treatments. Proteins identified by 5 min include signaling
components such as kinases or transcription factors. In contrast, by 20 min, proteins
identified were associated with transporter activity or hormone metabolism functions,
among others. The phosphorylation profile of NITRATE TRANSPORTER 1.1 (NRT1.1)
mutant plants was significantly altered as compared to wild-type plants, confirming
its key role in nitrate signaling pathways that involves phosphorylation changes.
Integrative bioinformatics analysis highlights auxin transport as an important
mechanism modulated by nitrate signaling at the post-translational level. We validated
a new phosphorylation site in PIN2 and provide evidence that it functions in primary
and lateral root growth responses to nitrate.

text: 'Nitrogen is an essential macronutrient determining plant growth, development
and affecting agricultural productivity. Root, as a hub that perceives and integrates
local and systemic signals on the plant’s external and endogenous nitrogen resources,
communicates with other plant organs to consolidate their physiology and development
in accordance with actual nitrogen balance. Over the last years, numerous studies
demonstrated that these comprehensive developmental adaptations rely on the interaction
between pathways controlling nitrogen homeostasis and hormonal networks acting
globally in the plant body. However, molecular insights into how the information
about the nitrogen status is translated through hormonal pathways into specific
developmental output are lacking. In my work, I addressed so far poorly understood
mechanisms underlying root-to-shoot communication that lead to a rapid re-adjustment
of shoot growth and development after nitrate provision. Applying a combination
of molecular, cell, and developmental biology approaches, genetics and grafting
experiments as well as hormonal analytics, I identified and characterized an unknown
molecular framework orchestrating shoot development with a root nitrate sensory
system. '
