Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Oyetola O. Oyebanji's research investigates the evolutionary mechanisms driving plant-microbe symbiotic relationships, specifically focusing on root nodule symbiosis in legumes. Their work examines the role of polyploidy events, such as paleopolyploidy, in rewiring the genetic pathways that facilitate these interactions. Oyebanji also studies the phylogenetic underpinnings and gene expression regulation involved in the establishment and function of these symbioses. Their recent publication, "Evolution of root nodule symbiosis via paleopolyploidy and modular pathway rewiring," published in 2026, details these investigations. Oyebanji collaborates with Emmanuel C. Chukwuma at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, with whom they have co-authored one publication.
