Cyanobacteria
Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic microbes with key roles in Earth’s oxygen production and nitrogen fixation. Studying their physiology is vital for biotechnology, with applications in biofuels, bioremediation, and sustainable agriculture
Microalgae
Microalgae have a key ecological role as ocean primary producers. They have many potential applications for sustainable processes to produce biofuels, food, feed but also carbon capture and wastewater treatment
Mosses
Studying moss physiology provides key insights into plants evolution and their adaptation to land. They also offer the possibility of exploring genetic modifications that are not viable in plants such as for example respiratory mutants
Vascular Plants
Plants are essential for food, feed, and raw materials. Understanding their physiology supports the quest for improved yields, stress resistance, and sustainability, contributing to food security and agricultural innovation
