Understanding plant carbon storage and metabolism

About

Carbohydrate metabolism is central to plant fitness and productivity. My lab is focused on understanding the regulation of carbon (starch) storage in plant organs in order to increase yields, improve quality (digestibility, physicochemical properties) and enhance crop resilience to abiotic stress
