Research interests

  • Mechanisms underlying speciation and the role of natural selection
  • Ecological genomics of non-model species in a natural framework

My PhD project focuses on the mechanisms underlying reproductive isolation toward a possible speciation event in a natural hybrid zone of the autotetraploid Biscutella laevigata. I use the following approaches: Naturally occurring and experimental hybrids will be reciprocally transplanted and genotyped with SNP based on RNAseq data of the different ecotypes.
