Roberto Solano - Genetic Mutations

Author Information

Roberto Solano is a distinguished researcher affiliated with the Plant Molecular Genetics Department at Centro Nacional de Biotecnología-CSIC (CNB-CSIC) in Madrid, Spain. His work primarily focuses on the molecular genetics of plants, contributing significantly to our understanding of plant biology and genetics.

Research Contributions

Roberto Solano has made substantial contributions to the field of plant molecular genetics. In 2021 alone, he published numerous papers addressing various aspects of plant biology and genetics. His research encompasses the identification of DNA features that influence the binding of MYC2-related bHLH proteins in plants, the role of fatty acid desaturases in jasmonate synthesis, and the discovery of small molecules that antagonize jasmonic acid perception and auxin responses. Additionally, his work extends to antiviral studies, particularly the potential of chlorophyll catabolite Pheophorbide a as a potent antiviral agent against SARS-CoV-2, and the mechanisms of fungal pathogen infection in plants.
