Introduction
We study animal and plant biology at the cellular, organism and population levels to answer fundamental questions on evolution and lifetime development to advance the conservation of biodiversity and the sustainable use of resources.
Research
Main research areas are:
- Assessment and conservation of biodiversity
- Evolution and domestication
- Population studies and genetic variability
- Animal-plant interactions and consequences for biodiversity
- Reproductive biology and embryology.
Recent and current research projects include:
- Hedgerow biodiversity
- Propagation of small-leaved limes
- Behaviour and ecology of free ranging wild bream
