Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Maria V Korff"
- Maria V Korff's research focuses on the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying plant development and productivity, specifically in wheat spike and Arabidopsis thaliana.
- In her 2021 study, Korff explores how interactions between SQUAMOSA and SHORT VEGETATIVE PHASE MADS-box proteins regulate critical transitions in meristem development, ultimately affecting crop yield by influencing spikelet production.
- Additionally, her 2010 work delves into the genetic variation in Arabidopsis thaliana, using Single Feature Polymorphism (SFP) techniques to identify selective sweeps and map growth-related metabolic traits, highlighting the impact of natural selection on phenotypic variation.
