Our research aims at understanding the extent to which chromatin-based mechanisms and epigenetic processes regulate cell fate acquisition, maintenance and reprogramming during plant development.

How cell acquire and maintain their identity during development is indeed a central question in biology. Whereas cell identity is largely dictated by the transcriptional profiles resulting from the activity of specific transcription factors (TFs), the robustness of this state depends on the chromatin context in which these TFs act. Thus, the progression of a cell through successive differentiation stages, from stem cells to end-differentiated cells, is guided by changes in transcriptional programs that are regulated by the bidirectional interplay between TFs and chromatin organization.
In order to understand how epigenome dynamics enable cells to respond selectively to developmental and environmental cues, we develop complementary approaches aimed at characterizing the impact of chromatin-based mechanisms and epigenetic processes on the regulation of cell differentiation within Arabidopsis apical meristems. A particular emphasis is put on the transcriptional repressive pathways associated with proteins of the Polycomb group.

Three research axes, included in a systemic approach that combines genetic, molecular, imaging and genomic approaches at cellular resolution are implemented in order to:

 characterize epigenome dynamics during cell differentiation and reveal the specific role of chromatin regulators in the activity of stem cell niches, cell fate acquisition and identity maintenance.

 determine the impact of chromatin state dynamics on the target repertoire of select transcription factors (and vice-versa) within specific cell populations.

 evaluate how epigenomic variation contributes to shaping developmental programs during evolution.
