Welcome to the Crop Physiology Lab!

Our research spans a wide spectrum of environmental factors, from controllable aspects like irrigation and fertilization to broader influences such as radiation, photoperiod, and temperature. By exploring these interactions, we aim to uncover innovative strategies for improving crop performance under diverse conditions. On the genetic front, our work bridges general breeding approaches and the study of specific genes—whether naturally occurring or introduced into unique genetic backgrounds. This dual focus enables us to identify and harness traits that drive both productivity and sustainability. At the heart of our mission is the quest for solutions that transcend traditional farming and breeding paradigms. By enhancing resource-use efficiency, we strive to develop approaches that not only maximize yields but also safeguard the environmental integrity of agricultural systems. We are excited to have you join us in this journey of discovery and innovation. Whether you’re a collaborator, student, or curious visitor, we hope you’ll find our work inspiring and impactful. Together, let’s pave the way toward a more sustainable future for crop production.
