Laboratory of Plant Biotechnologies

Our mission and vision

Our mission is to conduct cutting-edge research on plant responses to abiotic and biotic stresses, with the goal of elucidating the molecular, physiological, and ecological mechanisms that underlie efficient stress tolerance.

In parallel, we investigate plant-environment interactions across multiple levels of biological organization to better understand adaptive processes and their implications for ecosystem functioning.

A further important focus is the elucidation of the therapeutic potential of selected secondary metabolites, which offers promising opportunities for applications in medicine, biotechnology, and human health.

Crucially, the outcomes of this fundamental research are not limited to theoretical advances but are actively transferred into practical applications. This is achieved through close collaboration with established and emerging partner organizations, ensuring that novel scientific insights contribute directly to sustainable agriculture, innovative biotechnologies, and broader societal benefits.
