Vincent Lab
Led by Christopher Vincent · Horticultural Sciences
What we study
The Vincent Lab studies how citrus and other plants move water and sugar in response to temperature, water availability, and light. They test methods like antibiotic delivery, particle films, and shade netting to improve crop productivity and stress tolerance.
