Profile

Graduated in Biology from University of La Laguna and specialized in Advances in Agricultural Biology and Aquaculture from University of Granada. I am researching due to a predoctoral scholarship of ACIISI at IPNA-CISC, working on a line focused on searching new agents for the selective fight against pathogenic fungi that affect crops of agronomic interest in Canary Islands. Previously, I have focused on the use of bacterial strains that promote growth in plants to verify their possible effect on crops subjected to different abiotic stresses and structural and ultrastructural study of the leaves and stems of cultivars of the Proteaceae family.

Research Interests

Plant Physiology, Biochemestry and Phytopathology.
