Jimenez-gomez lab
The Jiménez-Gómez group (or Plant Adaptive Genomics and Genetics group) combines bioinformatics, molecular biology and classic genetic analyses to identify and characterize genes important for plant natural variation and domestication. Our main working models are Arabidopsis thaliana and tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). Read more...
Our lab is part of the Institute Jean Pierre Bourgin in Versailles, France. IJPB is one of the largest plant science research centers in Europe, and a part of a joint research unit under the supervision of INRA and AgroParisTech. We have been very happily integrated into the Variation and Abiotic Stress Tolerance group, a great team with ample experience in natural variation in Arabidopsis thaliana. Until its closure in 2015, our group was part of the Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics of the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research in Cologne, Germany.<br\><br\> This wiki site is built under Openwetware, an open access movement promoting the sharing of information among researchers.

Dec 2016 - Again! We made it to Nature Genetics<br\> Great collaboration with the Lipmann lab at CSHL! These guys rule! Variation in the flowering gene SELF PRUNING 5G promotes day-neutrality and early yield in tomato<br\>
April 2016 -"Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches" ... check!<br\> Jose has obtained his "Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches". This means we are allowed to have PhD students. Apply when you are ready!!!<br\>
Feb 2016 - Spotlight article about our paper<br\> Thanks to Ekaterina Shor and Rachel Green for this nice article in Trends in Plant Science: The Impact of Domestication on the Circadian Clock<br\>
Jan 2016 - News and Views on our paper<br\> Thanks to Steve Kay and Marie Remigereau for writing a nice summary of our paper in Nature Genetics: Cultivated tomato clock runs slow<br\> And to Jun Lyu for writing a Research Highlight in Nature Plants: Tomato domestication: Slowing down the clock<br\>
Nov 2015 - Our paper in Nature Genetics<br\> Domestication selected for deceleration of the circadian clock in cultivated tomato<br\> <br\> Oct 2015 - ANR grant awarded!<br\> This is a good start for the lab. Our project, called STRESSNET, is featured in the SPS newsletter<br\> We are now looking for a postdoc to fill this position. More information here<br\> |
