Job Description & How to Apply Below
Location: Germany
The research group Genetics and Physiology of Root Development studies crop root anatomical and architectural traits. Research is mainly focused on cereals including barley, wheat, and maize. We aim to leverage high-throughput phenotyping to create knowledge about plant function at the physiological level and use forward genetics approaches to unravel the genetic architecture of root traits. We are currently conducting projects to characterize the function and genetic control of root anatomical and architectural traits to enhance plant stress tolerance.
This project will focus on characterizing xylem in maize roots.
- Root architectural and anatomical phenotyping using imaging and microscopy.
- Plant and root physiological measurements to determine the function of (interacting) root phenotypes.
- Functional-structural plant and mathematical modeling to determine the benefit of root phenotypes for stress tolerance.
- Report your work in scientific journals and oral presentations.
