Description
MAIN RESEARCH FIELDS:
Project (2020–2023): “The role of brassinosteroid hormones in the resistance of barley against powdery mildew infection and abiotic stress effects”. (coordinator prof. dr hab. A. Janeczko)
Continuation of studies in project (2024-2026) "The role of silicon in the resistance of winter oilseed rape against pathogen infections during deacclimation" (coordinator dr M. Ryś)
We offer the following expertise for research projects and cooperation:
1. Measurements of plant chemical composition:
- plant hormones: ethylene, salicylic acid, cytokinins, auxins, poliamines, jasmonic acid
- vitamins: C, E, provitamin A
- other substances: caffeine, melatonin, sugars, proteins, fatty acids, total lipids, photosynthetic pigments, etc.
2. Measurements of oxidative stress enzymes activity (SOD, catalase, peroxidase).
3. Measurements of electrolyte leakage and osmotic potential.
4. Isolation of cell membranes (including isolation of chloroplasts) from plant material.
5. Measurements of plant tissue metabolic activity via calorimetric methods.
6. The algae cultivation under controlled light and temperature conditions.
