Research Interests

Since plant growth and physiology is significantly affected by environmental factors, short term climate variability and long-term climate change can have extreme impacts on plant life in general and also on agricultural productivity. My research focuses on plant responses to environmental stresses in Arabidopsis thaliana. The long-term goal is to facilitate the breeding of crop plants for improved tolerance to environmental stresses with improved yield.
