Laboratory of Physiological and Biochemical Adaptation of Plants The research of the Laboratory staff is aimed at studying the biochemical, physiological, genetic, agrochemical and ecological aspects of adaptation of various cultivated plants to unfavorable growth conditions. One of the important directions of the laboratory's work is the mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) related to drought resistance in the genome of soft wheat, the study of the formation of the protein matrix of wheat gluten, its technological quality and the adaptation mechanisms of wheat plants related to lipid metabolism. The Laboratory actively participates in the work of the European Wheat Aneuploid Co-operative (EWAC) and major international forums on wheat genetics. Much attention is paid to the study of the winter hardiness of apple trees in the conditions of the Southern Baikal region and the elucidation of their physiological and biochemical essentials. The Laboratory selects genotypes of cultivated plants with improved characteristics of productivity and resistance.
