Our research explores the role of polyamines in plant immunity. We investigate how polyamine metabolism and signalling contribute to plant responses to pathogens and to the coordination of local and systemic defence. Using molecular, physiological, biochemical and multi-omics approaches, we seek to understand the mechanisms underlying plant resilience to biotic and environmental stress. 

We also develop innovative microbial biostimulants that protect from abiotic stress and biopesticides for sustainable agriculture. 

Our laboratory is affiliated to the University of Barcelona and to the Institute for Nutrition and Food Safety (INSA-UB).
