Ricardo A. Chávez Montes studies the molecular biology and genomics of plants and other photosynthetic organisms, using tools like genome sequencing, gene expression analysis, and bioinformatics. Much of the work focuses on how plants respond to stress (such as drought, salt, low nutrients, or disease) and how genes and gene networks control these responses. Study systems range from model plants like Arabidopsis to crops like tomato, maize, cotton, and chia, as well as algae and cyanobacteria.
