Dr. Tino Kreszies
Former Scientist
I am a plant scientist with a special interest on the effects of abiotic stresses on crops, such as drought, salt or nutrient deficiencies, as these will jeopardize food security in future. In my concept of research, I combine omics-technologies with plant physiology approaches, to understand the whole plant performance and their adaptation mechanisms to specific environments.Specific areas of interest include:
- The structure and function of suberized root barriers forming the root/soil interface
- The water and nutrient transport into plant roots
- The structure and function of cutin/wax barriers forming the plant/atmosphere interface
- Photosynthesis under aspects of nutrient deficiencies and drought stress
Current crops of interest:
- Barley & Wheat
- Maize
- Sugar beet
