Research — Dr. Gregory Lang , Professor

Research Interests

Tree Fruit Horticulture & Physiology - A primary focus is on cultural (orchard development) and physiological (reproductive and environmental stress) factors important to efficient production of high-value tree fruits. My laboratory has tended to take a diverse and integrative research approach through studies of meristem determination and growth regulation, carbon and nitrogen assimilation and partitioning, rootstock evaluation, and environmental limitations to refine orchard systems and management, primarily in stone fruits.

Sweet Cherry Genetic Improvement - A primary focus is on identification, evaluation, and development of important traits found within sweet cherry scion and rootstock germplasm to enhance fruit quality and reduce production inputs, such as fungicides.
