Caption

These Arabidopsis plants are part of studies to determine links between the plant defense system and circadian clock carried out by Hua Lu, professor of biological sciences at UMBC, and her lab members. The results could lead to plants that are more effective at fending off pathogens and pests or even influence human medical treatment.
