The Plant Stress Physiology Group was established by Dr. Vassilis Fotopoulos in 2008. Our group has extensive research experience in plant stress physiology, biochemistry, molecular biology and biotechnology with emphasis on the study of oxidative and nitrosative signaling cascades involved in the plant's response to abiotic and biotic stress factors. We are based in the Laboratory of Crop Science and Technology, which is equipped with state-of-the-art core facilities, such as an IQ5 qPCR cycler, an ABI capillary sequencer, a fluorescence microscopy unit, GC/GC-MS/HPLC-UV chromatographers as well as walk-in growth chambers.
