Plant PhysiologyResearch group has vast experience in phytoremediation research (analyzing willows, poplars and other woody species, but also some herbal model plants), abiotic stress (drought and heavy metals especially), physiological analyses of medicinal and allergenic plants, vegetable cultivars, sugar beet, corn and some other commercial plant species. In the past years, research was initiated to target influence of selected carbon based nanomaterials to plants. Lab has standard equipment for biochemical and molecular analyses. Parameters of photosynthetic activity (CO2 assimilation, photochemical efficacy, pigment content) and water regime (transpiration rate, stomata properties, water potential, indicators of water deficit), along with oxidative enzyme activity and nutrient assimilation of plants are investigated in relation to different types of stress. Recently, group started also some biochemical and molecular tests on model plants such as Arabidopsis, Brassica, etc. Several teaching courses are provided: Plant Physiology, Instrumental Methods in Biology, Mechanisms of Ecological Plant Development, Physiology of Woody Plants, Phytoremediation and Phytoindication. contact person: Associate Profesor Milan Borišev, PhD
