Regulation of plants responses to concurrent abiotic and biotic constraints
Our group is primarily interested in the elucidation of regulatory crosstalk mechanisms between plant hormone signaling pathways in a context of biotic and abiotic stress concurrence, using tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) as model and focusing in the simultaneous effect of drought, high temperature stress and the attack of spider mites.
Hormonal crosstalk in the regulation of metabolism in plants subjected to hypoxia
One of the research lines focuses on the interaction between ethylene and N-degron pathways and abscisic acid (ABA) signaling in the control of metabolic responses of plants subjected to hypoxic conditions, using Arabidopsis thaliana and tomato as models.
ABA-JA hormonal interaction to regulate plant responses to spider mite infestation
It has been widely described the interaction between ABA and JAs to regulate different aspects of plant development and response to environmental stresses. In this research line, we are focussed in the ABA-JAs crosstalk to regulate plant responses to spider mites in Arabidopsis thaliana. Hence, we are mainly using genetics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics tools to reveal the molecular mechanisms involved in this hormonal crosstalk.
