Climate change poses major challenges for humanity - rising temperatures, extreme weather events and water scarcity threaten global food security. How can we make crops more resilient to ensure a secure food supply in the future?

Plant research provides innovative solutions to adapt plants to changing environmental conditions. Four scientists present their current research projects and show the methods they are using, the goals they are pursuing and how they could succeed in defying climate change with resilient plants.

Organisers: CEPLAS and TRR 341
