Research areas

 

Ecological genomics group - https://botany.natur.cuni.cz/ecolgen/We study the multifaceted interactions between dynamic plant genomes and their surrounding environment.

 

Plant Repro Evo Lab - https://lab-allience.natur.cuni.cz/plantreproevoWe are interested in the evolutionary processes shaping plant sexual traits.

 

 

Apomixis research group - https://botany.natur.cuni.cz/apomixisgroup/ We study evolutionary, ecological and biogeographic aspects of asexual seed reproduction – apomixis.

 

 

Plant Evolutionary CytoGenomics - https://lab-allience.natur.cuni.cz/plantevolcytogen We study why (not) and how differentiation and diversity originate, establish and keep maintained in plants.

 

Historical biogeography and phylogeography

Conservation biology of endangered plants

Microevolution of ferns
