Dr. Anthony Trewavas is a molecular biologist and emeritus professor in the School of Biological Sciences of the University of Edinburgh who’s been studying plant biochemistry for longer than many of us have even been alive. How and why do plants behave the way they do? What mechanisms underlie their response to environmental factors? What are the key chemicals responsible for plant growth and development? These are the questions that have driven Dr. Trewavas’ work over the years. He brings a wealth of information to the discussion today, explaining various research projects and papers he’s published over the years, to include the topics of the influence of the hormone auxin on plant behavior, protein phosphorylation as a means of controlling how cells function, and the critical role of calcium in a plant’s ability to respond to various environmental and chemical signals. Tune in for a fascinating and informative conversation and search for Dr. Anthony Trewavas on the web to learn more about his work.

On All Things Plant Growth and Development—Anthony Trewavas—Emeritus School of Biological Sciences of the University of Edinburgh

How do plants control what they do? How do they grow and develop, and how is their growth and development controlled? At its core, all of Dr. Anthony Trewavas’ work as a molecular biologist has revolved around these questions. He’s been studying plant life and biochemistry for decades now, collecting and developing an impressive amount of technical knowledge along the way. On today’s episode, he explains what triggered this lifelong interest, how his career has developed and evolved over the years, and what he’s learned about a number of aspects of plant behavior and development. One of his main focuses has been on protein phosphorylation, which he explains is the most basic method of changing what cells do by modifying enzymatic activity. He also explains the role and effects of a plant hormone called auxin, plant mechanical stimulation, the importance of calcium in the process of responding to signals, how plants take up and store calcium, general systems theory as it applies to the study of plant hormones, and so much more.
