Research profile:

• Effect of water and nutrients accessibility on leaf spectral characteristics
• Impact of soil conditions, light intensity and CO2 concentration on plant photosynthetic activity, function of photosystems I and II in leaves and cell suspensions
• Water flow within the soil – plant – atmosphere system

Analysis:

• Absorption and reflection of light by biological substances in visible and Near Infra-Red (NIR) light
• Chemical detection and monitoring of N, sugar and water in leaves
• Impact of growth condition on the rate of photosynthesis and chlorophyll fluorescence
• Plant sap flow using in 2-7 mm stems with noninvasive methods
