Section of Experimental Plant Biology

At the Section of Experimental Plant Biology, we teach and research physiological processes from the cellular level to entire plant populations. Small work teams organized into several laboratories mainly investigate the problematics of plant reactions to adverse environmental conditions. We are primarily interested in the efficiency of the use of external sources of substances and energy in metabolic processes, changes in plant growth and development, as well as the mechanisms of regulation of all these processes. We use a wide range of methods for our work, from purely physiological and physical ones to the molecular biology methods. Our ongoing research is primarily focused on:

  1. stresovou fyziologii fotosyntézy extremofilních organismů,
  2. specializované biofyzikální metody ve výzkumu odolnosti rostlin vůči chladu a mrazu,
  3. projevy oxidativního stresu ve fotosyntetickém aparátu chloroplastu,
  4. limitní faktory xylémového transportu a vodního provozu rostlin,
  5. metabolismus dusíku,
  6. studium vlivu perzistentních organických polutantů,
  7. studium účinků růstových regulátorů při in vitro kultivaci rostlin,
  8. vliv arbuskulární a orchideoidní mykorrhizy na příjem minerálních živin hostitelskými rostlinami.
