Bachelor’s or Master’s thesis on drought stress response in oat – microscopy, phenotyping, and data analysis at TUM and Helmholtz Munich.

We offer a Bachelor or Master thesis in a project on Drought Stress Response in Oat for a student of Biology or Agricultural Biosciences or similar, jointly supervised by Helmholtz Munich and TUM.

In a large-scale drought stress experiment on oat, we’re working with a broad diversity of genotypes — from wild relatives to landraces and elite cultivars. The student will:
- Quantify stomatal density at multiple drought timepoints
- Analyze plant architecture using image-based data from a high-throughput phenotyping platform
- Correlate physiological traits (e.g., stomata, yield) with gene expression data
The start is as soon as you are available, Location: Helmholtz Munich & TUM Freising
