The research group studies crop root anatomical and architectural traits. Research is mainly focused on cereals including barley, wheat, and maize. We aim to leverage high-throughput phenotyping to create knowledge about plant function at the physiological level and use forward genetics approaches to unravel the genetic architecture of root traits. We are currently conducting projects to characterize the function and genetic control of root anatomical and architectural traits to enhance plant stress tolerance

Your tasks:

  • Root phenotyping including microscopy and imaging
  • Plant cultivation and physiological measurements
  • Molecular biology and genetics including wet-lab techniques and mutant screening
  • Report your work in scientific journals and oral presentations.
