Research Interests

• Phenotypicplasticity of developmental hierarchies in plants.
• Neighbor perception and developmental strategies of roots in higher plants.
• Drought-responsive genes in populations from desert habitats.

• Developmental strategies of plants under variable environmental conditions.
• Morphogenetical controls of plants to within-plant environmental heterogeneity.
• Spectral perception and avoidance of potential competition in higher plants.
• The relative importance of resource spatial heterogeneity and pulsing in unproductive environments.
