UF IFAS Horticultural Crop Physiology Lab

Welcome to Horticultural Crop Physiology Lab's YouTube channel! Our lab is at the Gulf Coast Research and Education Center, part of the University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences (UF/IFAS). 

Our lab studies how plants adapt to environmental changes, from climates and abiotic stresses to soil nutrient dynamics. By addressing these complex processes, we develop and optimize agronomic practices to improve crop stress resilience, productivity, and resource use efficiency. We study a wide variety of horticultural crops, including strawberry, blueberry, blackberry, tomato, pepper, potato, green beans, artichoke, and hops. Our ultimate goal is to contribute to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future for agriculture!
