Laboratory of Applied Ecology

• Research on the ecophysiological properties of genotypes and the production potential of fast growing energy herbs and woods used for energy purposes in the conditions of southwestern Slovakia,
• analysis of growth dynamics and production of fast-growing energy grass of Arundo donax L. in the second year after planting, assessment of dry matter in above ground and underground organs at the end of the vegetation period, evaluation of selected ecophysiological characteristics of plants leaves,
• analyses of growth dynamics and biomass production of fast growing energetic plants and wood species cultivated on degraded soils and soils not used for food production.
