Soil microbiology - Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF)
Arbuscular mycorrhiza in cropping systems - Conservation agriculture and bio-protection
Providing of analytical and consulting services in the field of soil microbiology
The research developed is related to the influence of common agronomic practices (weed control, tillage system or crop rotation) on arbuscular endomycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and to understand how can this practices be adjusted in order to take advantage of the AMF symbioses that naturally occur in the soil (native inoculum). More recent studies are focused on developing strategies to manage indigenous AMF and their functional diversity within cropping systems for the bio-protection of cultivated plants against biotic and abiotic stresses.
