We have continued to study the genetics and evolution of breeding systems in a Neotropical clade within the Passifloraceae (formerly called the Turneraceae). In the genus Turnera, a majority of species are distylous and strongly self-incompatible, while other species are self-compatible often having anthers and stigmas in close proximity, leading to high rates of self-fertilization. We have been working towards a molecular genetic dissection of the distyly (S) locus in Turnera species. We have constructed high resolution genetic maps of the S-locus region using recombination and deletion mapping; assembled and sequenced a set of BAC clones across both the recessive and dominant haplotypes; sequenced the transcriptome of styles and stamens to discover differentially expressed genes; have developed a genetic transformation system in Turnera that will allow us to test the function of candidate genes for distyly; and we are currently sequencing the genome of one Turnera species. We have discovered a number of candidate genes using these methods and are currently testing their function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sub-Disciplines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Evolutionary Biology, Population Biology, Genetics, Plant Biology<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","department":[3],"research-area":[15],"un-goal":[],"research-method":[],"graduate-program-membership":[],"graduate-program-physics":[],"admin-faculty-title-department":[],"program":[],"class_list":["post-1147","faculty","type-faculty","status-publish","hentry","department-biology","research-area-ecology"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Joel Shore - Faculty of Science Profiles<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/science\/profiles\/faculty\/joel-shore\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Joel Shore - Faculty of Science Profiles\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Research Focus Research in my lab focuses on the molecular genetics and evolution of plant breeding systems although we have carried out studies of plant population genetics and plant\/butterfly interactions.
