We share our lastest research and present researchers, students, and projects.
Genomics and Phenomics of Plant Diversity
We study plant genetic resources from wild relatives to modern varieties and how important traits can be passed on and kept stable through generations.
Plant Biotechnology and Functional Genomics
We unravel the regulatory networks of storage compounds in plants and then uses this knowledge for creating new crops by means of modern gene-technology methods.
Plant Product Quality Improvement
We identify how different crops, cultivars, cultivation methods, and postharvest handling affect and regulate end-product quality—and how this quality can be increased.
Applied Genetics and Crop Genetic Improvement
We develop and use knowledge in genetics, molecular biology, and plant physiology to create new and improved cultivars for both agricultural and horticultural crops.
Plants and the Environment
Our research explores both short-term responses and long-term adaptation strategies in annual and perennial crop species.
SLU Food Lab
The SLU Food Lab is an arena side-by-side with teaching and research, contributing to increased knowledge about the interaction between raw materials, process, and product.
The Plant Protein Factory
At The Plant Protein Factory researchers with different skills are working together to develop the quality proteins of the future - from plant breeding to production and consumption.
