Plant Ecophysiology
The Plant Ecophysiology team studies processes at the plant and the ecosystem levels and analyses the influence of environmental factors on their structural and functional properties.
The main objective is to understand the biological and physical mechanisms of the responses of plant-soil systems to environmental constraints (drought, cold, heat, strong light, nutrient deficiencies).
This research also aims at developing models, methods and instruments to diagnose and predict the responses of plants, soil and ecosystems to global changes, especially climatic changes.
