LÍNEA DE INVESTIGACIÓN

Su investigación se enfoca al estudio de interacciones micorrízicas de plantas nativas, aplicando estrategias moleculares de expresión de genes y síntesis de proteínas para caracterizar los procesos de micorrización establecidos en orquídeas y ericáceas. Su investigación tiene como objetivo el diseño de estrategias de re-introducción de poblaciones vulnerables y valorización económica de especies endémicas con potencial ornamental, basado en las interacciones rizosféricas (hongos-bacterias) compatibles.
