My research concentrates on the intersection between plant and environmental stress with emphasis on drought, salt and submergence stress and agricultural water management. Improving Egyptian wheat genotypes for salt tolerance was elucidated. Response of field crops to different agronomic practices was studied.  Sensitive reactions of gramineous plants to salt stress were elucidated with a particular focus on physiological and chemical characteristics. Recent attempts concentrate on non-destructive techniques to characterise with high through-put relevant traits of droughted and salinised plants under field conditions (Precision Phenotyping). The other major research topic deals with optimizing water management implementing novel methods in plant cultivation.
