Plant Science Division Research Research Strategy Publications Seminars pdf Research posters Research Developments Plant Scientists at Nottingham have a reputation for carrying out world class research. The strategy of scientists within this group is to carry out research on fundamental processes and their applications that regulate plant growth, development and quality, and to study the interactions between plants, their environment, and other organisms. Our goal is to harness this knowledge to improve crop quality and agronomic performance. A major development has been to strengthen Arabidopsis research to gain new insights into the molecular basis of crop plant processes.
Research is focussed on five multi-disciplinary areas described below.
Many members of staff contribute to more than one prohramme.
