The second class of PhD and MD students of the International Graduate Research School ’Molecular Interactions of Pathogens with Biotic and Abiotic Surfaces’ started on January, 1st, 2010. The Graduate ...

Coral reefs are one of the most diverse ecosystems on the planet. What are the abiotic and biotic interactions that structure this diverse ecosystem? Corals are members of the phylum Cnidaria ...

These management decisions can be on a local level or expand to the biosphere. Study biotic and abiotic interactions to understand ecosystem processes and patterns. Analyze nutrients in soil and water ...

we investigate the interactions between trees and their environment – both abiotic interactions such as heat, drought and cold stress; and biotic interactions such as insect pests or fungal pathogens.

Ecosystems are made up of living – or biotic – organisms, like plants and animals;which rely on nonliving – or abiotic – things, like the sun and the weather,to survive and thrive.

"Our study is a positive exploration of phytochemical diversity patterns and their interactions with rhizosphere ...

Major challenges we aim to solve are: 1) To understand organismal diversity and the interactions between organisms and their abiotic and biotic environments. 2) To determine adaptive capacity of ...
