Genetic Regulation in Methanogens
In the Tollerson Lab, we aim to bring molecular tools that have been pioneered in model systems to understudied systems. Our research focuses on diverse systems, including methane metabolizing archaea, and how they use transcriptional and post-transcriptional responses to environmental flux.
Microbial responses to agriculture
Microbes have a critical role in plant growth and crop production. We are interested in how microbial communities in soils are impacted by anthropogenic nutrient inputs (fertilizers).
Microbial community structure and function
Microbes must not only interact with their environment, but also with each other. It is critical to understand how microbes detect each other and how these detection mechanisms are regulated.
