Profiling value-added bioactive compounds from plant-derived resources for biotechnological and therapeutical applications.
Characterization of the genetic diversity of species of forest and agricultural of interest in relation to nutritional value and yield as well as technological, biotechnological and biomedical applications.
Evaluation of seed development, yield and nutritional quality as affected by multiple stressors by phenotyping and biochemical tools.
Evaluation of carbon metabolism in plants (photosynthesis, primary metabolism, cellular distribution) affected by multiple stressors.
Multiscale approach to plant growth and productivity making use of physiological, biochemical and omic“s tools.
The phenotypic plasticity has been evaluated for: resilience, i.e. some genotypes cope successfully in a given environment while others perish; productivity, i.e. only a few genotypes are able to produce high yields in contrasting environments; technological abilities, i.e. others uses than food and feed.
