Overview

Jörg Durner is affiliated with the Technical University of Munich in Germany and has contributed extensively to the fields of Agricultural and Biological Sciences as well as Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology. Their research focuses principally on Plant Science and Molecular Biology, with significant interests in Ecology, Evolution, Behavior and Systematics, Immunology and Allergy, and Atmospheric Science.

The primary topics addressed in their research include:

  • Plant Molecular Biology Research
  • Plant responses to elevated CO2
  • Plant Stress Responses and Tolerance
  • Allergic Rhinitis and Sensitization
  • Lichen and fungal ecology
  • Plant Gene Expression Analysis
  • Polyamine Metabolism and Applications

Durner has published in several scientific venues, with multiple papers appearing in Frontiers in Plant Science, New Phytologist, bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Molecular Metabolism, and Allergy.

Their recent publications include:

  • Regulating the regulator: nitric oxide control of post-translational modifications, 2020, New Phytologist
  • Ragweed plants grown under elevated CO2 levels produce pollen which elicit stronger allergic lung inflammation, 2020, Allergy
  • Interactions between metabolism and chromatin in plant models, 2020, Molecular Metabolism
  • Nitric oxide coordinates growth, development, and stress response via histone modification and gene expression, 2021, PLANT PHYSIOLOGY
  • Nitric oxide-releasing nanomaterials: from basic research to potential biotechnological applications in agriculture, 2022, New Phytologist

Collaborations form an important part of Durner's work. Frequent co-authors include Christian Lindermayr, Jörg-Peter Schnitzler, Elisabeth Georgii, Jana Barbro Winkler, and Andrea Ghirardo.
