At the Plant Biotechnology Lab - Faculty of Sciences and Technology, University of Algarve, Center for Mediterranean Bioresources and Food (MeditBio) - we conduct research on the use of biotechnological approaches towards the conservation and sustainable use of plant genetic resources and on the biological and chemical characterization of natural compounds from plant origin.
The main research interests of the team are:
窶｢ In vitro propagation of plants
窶｢ Germplasm conservation
窶｢ Chemical and biological characterization of wild plants and agrifood products
窶｢ Biopolymers and surfactant systems
