SUMMARY:Unmasking the Biology and Biotechnological Applications of Halophytes

In this seminar, we will learn about the biology and the main morphological and anatomical characteristics of the halophytes that have led them to dominate the vegetation of the interior and coastal marshes, as well as the biotechnological applications that are beginning to be promoted in a context of global warming: From the emerging crops in saline agriculture to their participation in alcoholic beverages or gourmet cuisine.</span></span></span></span></p><p style="margin:0in0in8pt;text-align:justify">	 </p><p>	<drupal-media data-entity-type="media" data-entity-uuid="addacd59-b7d9-4578-9ba4-3854ac5be1a5" alt="esteban"></drupal-media></p><p>	<strong>Speaker:</strong> Esteban Ramírez Chueca (<span><span style="line-height:15.6933px"><span style="sans-serif"><span lang="EN-US" style="background:white"><span style='NewRoman",serif'><span style="color:#1f1f1f">PhD Candidate in Biology Department of CBMSO-UAM (Severo Ochoa Center for Molecular Biology – Autonomous University of Madrid).
