Maria Flores Tornero

Maria Flores Tornero is a Lecturer in the Department of Plant Biology at the Faculty of Biological Sciences, University of Valencia, Spain. Her research focuses on plant metabolic pathways, particularly serine biosynthesis and its integration with carbon and nitrogen metabolism in Arabidopsis.

Research Interests: Her work lies at the intersection of plant physiology and metabolic engineering. She investigates the phosphorylated pathway of serine biosynthesis and its regulatory roles in plant development and metabolic homeostasis. This includes understanding how primary metabolic networks interact and adapt under varying physiological conditions.

Education:

• PhD in Plant Biology, University of Valencia (2016)

Research Group:

• MePiVe – Primary Metabolism and Metabolic Engineering of Plants

Collaboration and Advising: She was supervised by Dr. Roque Luis Ros Palau during her doctoral studies. No current students or grants are listed in the available information.
