Karin S Ljung - Genetic Mutations

Author Information

Karin S Ljung is a prominent researcher affiliated with the Department of Forest Genetics and Plant Physiology at the Umeå Plant Science Centre, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in Umeå, Sweden. Her research contributions have significantly advanced our understanding of plant physiology and genetics.

Research Contributions

Karin S Ljung's research primarily focuses on the role of phytohormones such as auxins and cytokinins in plant development. Her recent work has explored various aspects of plant growth and development, including seedling development, root architecture, and response to environmental stressors such as salinity and water deficit. Notable findings include the regulation of seedling development by KAI2 through light-induced auxin transport, the role of auxin in energy generation for pollen maturation, and the coordination of senescence in response to environmental and phytohormone signals. Her research has broad implications for improving crop resilience and productivity.
