Vegetables:
Application
and improvement of modern technologies in production
of vegetables in the field and protected facilities
(greenhouses/glasshouses) is the fundamental task
of the group conducting research on vegetables.
They research the influence of abiotic
(water, salt, temperature) andbiotic
stress factors (whiteflies, aphids, viruses) on
the morphological and physiological changes in plants,
and the consequent yield and quality of crops. The
group is continuously active in the collection and
conservation of valuable autochthonous species,
such as the kale, as well as in the introduction
of new vegetable species and cultivars.
