MicroHealth: Healthy from soil to gut: the effect of the soil microbiome on human health
MicroHealth Healthy from soil to gut: the effect of the soil microbiome on human health We study the impact of farming strategies on the soil
In MiCROP we will find new signaling molecules and unravel their production, transportation and perception that influence beneficial microbes under phosphate starvation.
In two projects funded by Chinese Scholarship Council, We study how phosphate starvation influences plant metabolism, and what the role of strigolactones is in these changes. We aim to fully elucidate strigolactone biosynthesis pathways in diverse plant species and explore their functional plasticity.
In a ‘Holland Innovative Potato’ project, we study how nitrogen influence plant metabolism, and which metabolites and microbes are essential for plant to obtain more nitrogen.

We study the plant-microbiome interactions in order to enhance plant growth and resilience to environmental stress.
Strigolactone biosynthesis in Gramineae (maize, rice, sorghum) and functional diversity of strigolactones.
We study how phosphate deficiency change plant metabolism, and what is the role of strigolactone in these changes. We also elucidate strigolactone biosynthesis in tomato.
