Research subject Plant Physiology

The research is performed in the coastal areas of the Baltic Sea.

Global climate change mitigation through the preservation of natural biological carbon sinks is of the highest importance to face the threats to our planet but poses ample challenges for society, governments and policy makers around the world.

The "Cell differentiation and coordination in tissues" group is establishing and optimizing novel methods to directly assess changes in amount and chemical composition of plant biomass from biopsies with sub µm resolution.

Meringosphaera are a widespread genus of marine planktonic unicellular eukaryotes that are globally distributed, yet poorly characterized.

The experiments are performed in an open ocean symbiotic cyanobacterium by expression in heterologous systems.

Aquatic Microbiome Research Initiative

The "Cell differentiation and coordination in tissues" group investigates the formation and organization of the plant carbon biomass that is accumulated in plant cell walls.
