A research team from the Department of Environment & Biodiversity at the Paris Lodron University of Salzburg has shown that drought has negative effects on the flowers and on flower visits by pollinators in the Styrian oil pumpkin.

Wenn Mensch und Technologie zusammenarbeiten sollen, spielt das Vertrauen eine wesentliche Rolle. Im Rahmen der Salzburger Hochschulwochen referierte Universitätsprofessor Alexander Meschtscherjakov von der Paris Lodron Universität Salzburg PLUS über diesen wesentlichen Erfolgsfaktor bei der Akzeptanz von Technologie.

An international research team, including PLUS researchers, has used X-ray nanotomography to discover how tiny, self-organised structures work together. This nanoimaging technique could help to produce materials for lighting and electronics applications that have a uniform and improved structure over long distances.
