Aim

Our investigations concentrate on the identification of primary (carbohydrates, proteins) and secondary (phenolic compounds) metabolites involved in water management, crop productivity and stress tolerance. Specific focus is to provide insight into the genetic and molecular mechanisms enhancing plants drought tolerance.
