Restoration of Threatened and Special Plant Species of Israel חקר, שיקום ושימור של מיני צמחים הנמצאים בסכנה בישראל Dr. Moshe Agami דר' משה אגמי Institute for Cereal Crops Improvement, Room 101 Tel: 03-6406452 (work), 09-7672529, Email:agami@post.tau.ac.il My research centers on the ecology and ecophysiology of aquatic plants, as well as their use in wastewater treatment, and wild relatives of cultivated plants in development areas. Special emphasis is put on plants threatened by extinction, and a “refuge garden” was established in the Botanic Gardens of TAU in order to investigate them and restore them into their original sites. A second activity involves the biology and ecology of desert plants, and biological interactions between various species.
