Resumo(s)
The study of transcription factors (TFs) can reveal important players
behind a specific developmental process. The identification of TFs DNA-targets
on a genome-wide scale provides fundamental information not only on how the
expression of the targeted genes are regulated but also about the molecular
mechanisms behind this process. QsMYB1 is a R2R3-MYB transcription factor
related to secondary growth and cork development in Quercus suber. Given the
importance of cork quality for the cork-based industry, the study of genes involved
in cork formation can provide important insights. In this context, the objective of
this PhD thesis was to further study QsMYB1 gene, by identifying its DNA targets
on the cork oak genome, in order to elucidate the gene regulatory mechanism in
which QsMYB1 exerts its function
