About

I am a passionate researcher with expertise in plant molecular physiology, focusing on the mechanisms underlying plant responses to abiotic stress and climate change. My research investigates how environmental stressors—such as drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures—impact plant physiology and molecular processes, with the goal of developing strategies to enhance crop resilience and productivity in the face of global climate challenges.

In addition, I explore the critical roles of mineral nutrition and nutritional physiology in plants, emphasizing nutrient use efficiency and the improvement of crop nutritional quality. By integrating plant molecular physiology, abiotic stress responses, and nutritional studies, my work aims to advance agricultural sustainability and contribute to global food security under changing environmental conditions.
