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
Evolutionary ecology of polyploid plants
Taxonomy of European flora
Research at the department would not be possible without grants and international cooperations.
