Marie-Anne de Graaff Ph.D. student e-mail: mdegraaff@ucdavis.edu Resume    |    Publications

Education:
Ph.D. Soil Science - Wageningen University, the Netherlands, in collaboration with University of California, Davis, USA
M.S. Nature Development - Wageningen University the Netherlands, 2003.
B.S. Forest and Nature Management - Wageningen University the Netherlands, 2001.

Research interests:
To determine the impact of elevated atmospheric CO2 on ecological processes occurring at the plant-soil interface. I am particularly interested in differences in rhizodeposition between crop genotypes and the consequences for nutrient cycling under elevated CO2.

Projects:

• Root: shoot ratios in cultivated and wild Medicago truncatula cultivars
• The impact of elevated CO₂ on rhizodeposition and N cycling under wheat and corn
