Research Interests
Investigation of speciational mechanisms, evolutionary relationships,
and character evolution in flowering plants and land plants utilizing a
variety of experimental approaches. Current major interests include the
study of higher level phylogenetic relationships and character evolution
in the angiosperms, floral evolution, the genetic basis of key floral differences
in basal angiosperms, the genetic and genomic consequences of polyploid
speciation, conservation genetics of rare plant species, and phylogeography.
