Research

We explore fundamental and applied questions at the interface between plant ecology, genetics and evolution and study the biodiversity and systematics of plants and fungi. Much of our work combines population genetic and genomic analyses of natural plant populations with ecological experiments.

Plant Ecological Genetics

  • Adaption genomics
  • Evolution of dioecy and sex chromosomes
  • Timber identification
  • Evolutionary genetics of reproductive isolation

Genetic Diversity Monitoring

Biosystematics & Collections

  • Biodiversity in rust fungi
  • Herbariomics

Plant Molecular Physiology
