Job Type: FullTime
Deadline: 07 Jan 2022

Postdoctoral researcher in frame of the project DEVELOPMENT OF MICROBE-BASEDBIOSTIMULANT PRODUCTS TO ENHANCE ABIOTIC STRESS TOLERANCE IN CROPS (BIOSTRESS)

Postdoctoral researcher with at least one year of postdoctoral experience, and holding a PhD in the area of plant molecular biology. Demonstrated experience in the isolation and characterization of plant endophytic bacteria. Experience in the quantitation of plant abiotic stress tolerance (salinity and low temperature), including biochemical and metabolic characterization. Experience in bacteria strain characterization by sequencing, bacteria genome sequencing and species categorization by genetic and biochemical analyses.

The postdoctoral researcher will participate in the development of microbe-based plant biostimulant products based on bacteria strains. Analysis of abiotic stress tolerance traits (salinity and freezing). Bacteria strain characterization at genetic and biochemical level. Development of stress-specific microbe-based biostimulant screen platforms. Isolation and identification of plant microbiota.
