Plant physiology and biochemistry serve as core research fields within the Department of Plant Agriculture. This work leads to breakthroughs in understanding factors affecting light absorption, nutrient utilization, water consumption, and biochemical processes in plants across molecular, cellular, whole plant, and crop scales. These insights help create guidelines for choosing stress-resistant plants, determining optimal weed management timing, and improving post-harvest storage methods for fruits and vegetables.
