Research topics

BVpam lab specializes in the study of the diversity and biosynthesis of volatile compounds in aromatic plants.

Our research aims to better understand the mechanisms of production, secretion and the roles of volatile compounds in aromatic plants. Among these volatile compounds, we are particular interested in terpenoids.

Our model plants belong to the genus Rosa, Lavandula, Petunia and Pelargonium, but we also work with Frullania, Salvia, Arabidopsis, or Cypripedium and many more.
