| We study the genetic and molecular bases for the '''adaptation of plants to their local environments'''. We mainly focus on the evolutionary adaptation of plant populations to '''abiotic and biotic stresses''', which are major threats for plant survival. Derived from our basic research, we investigate ways for improving stress protection.<br>

| '''1. Immune-related hybrid incompatibility in plants ''' <br>
| |
| <font face="helvetica" style="color:#000000" font size="3"> <br>
| |
| We study the evolution of ''Resistance'' genes and interacting loci that condition '''immune-related hybrid incompatibility''', a lethal activation of defense produced after the cross of different individuals in natural ''Arabidopsis thaliana'' populations. This research is complemented by the study of the modulation of ''NB-LRR'' signaling by '''temperature''' which is important under the current climate change predictions. <br><br>

| |
| | |
| | |
| In collaboration with the lab of Prof. A.F.Tiburcio at the same department, we study the genetic bases for the naturally occurring variation of '''stress protective metabolites''' that condition resistance traits in plants.
