Research Interest
Research interests Membrane transporters are vital for plant growth and development. They play key roles in plant nutrition, signalling, homeostasis, osmoregulation and stress responses. The way in which we view membrane transport in higher plants has radically changed and we now recognise the diversity of transport proteins.
