Some of biological questions being addressed at the UTM Growth Facilities:
- How will long-lived conifer species adapt to future climate?
- How will climate change affect the ecology of plant defence against herbivores?
- What is the regulatory pathway that drives carbon towards terpenoids synthesis?
- How do insect cells communicate with one another in order to produce an appropriate physiological and behavioral response?
