Abstract
The objective of this application is to use a screen based on infra-red thermal imaging to isolate guard cell signal transduction mutants in Arabidopsis. The mutants will be characterised genetically and their phenotypes documented physiologically. Once this has taken placed the tagged genes will be isolated and characterised. This is a collaborative project between Lancaster University and Zeneca Agrochemicals making use of the complementary skills that exist at both sites. Isolation of novel guard cell mutants will generate a resource of use to the UK signalling community.
