Efi Levizou

PeerJ Editor, Author & Reviewer

Summary

Associate Professor in Plant Physiology at the Department of Agriculture, Crop Production and Rural Environment, University of Thessaly, Volos, Greece. My research interests lie in the field of Plant Stress Physiology and I’m particularly interested in studying how plants cope with degraded irrigation water and soils. Focus is given on the effects of cyanotoxins-rich irrigation water on plant function as well as on how enhanced levels of potentially harmful trace elements in soil affect plant performance, in the phytoremediation context. Recent research projects include the study of crop function and the identification of possible stress factors in aquaponics production systems.
