Current projects

Salix L. (Salicaceae)

  • phylogeny of Salix Chamaetia-Vetrix clade using RAD sequencing (DFG project within SPP 1991 "Taxon-OMICS")
  • reticulate evolution, the role of recent and ancient hybridisation and polyploidization in shrub willows


Cooperation projects
  • plant-insect interaction on willows (Tommi Nyman, NIBIO, Norway)
  • trends in willow chemistry (diversity, predator defence mechanism) along elevational gradients and their adaptive potential in hybrid populations (Martin Volf, Budwise, Czech Republic; Nicole van Dam, idiv, Leipzig)
