Adverse environmental stresses, such as high salinity, drought, and extreme temperatures are serious challenges affecting the distribution and yield of agricultural crops around the globe. The expected global climate changes will further increase these challenges in many areas, making improved stress resistance of crops a key factor for securing food supplies in the 21st century. My research program aims at identifying and characterizing the mechanisms underlying plant stress tolerance, both at the whole plant and cellular levels. This knowledge will enable the future biotechnological development of stress-tolerant crops, ensuring high yield under harsh conditions for a long-term sustainable agriculture.

不利的环境压力，如高盐度、干旱和极端温度，是影响地球仪各地农作物分布和产量的严重挑战。预期的全球气候变化将进一步增加许多地区的这些挑战，使提高作物的抗逆性成为确保世纪粮食供应的关键因素。我的研究项目旨在确定和表征植物抗逆性的机制，无论是在整个植物和细胞水平。这一知识将使未来的生物技术发展的压力耐受作物，确保高产量在恶劣条件下的长期可持续农业。
