Our current research interests can be reasonably covered by the following topics:

• Effects of reticulation in phylogeny reconstruction.
• Phylogeny of angiosperm groups using morphological and molecular data.
• Biogeography (and specifically, phylogeography) of plant groups in the Mediterranean region.
• What is the relation between high diversity (in terms of morphologically and ecologically distinguishable entities) and extensive hybridization in two angiosperm genera like Armeria (and Limonium (Plumbaginaceae)?
• Is there a biogeographical pattern at all in a disturbed region like the Western Mediterranean that we may seek to discover by conducting phylogeographic studies in angiosperm groups?
• Molecular Evolution in asexual plant lineages.
• Molecular and organismal evolution in islands, with an emphasis in the contrast betwween continental and oceanic islands.
• Detection of food adulteration using molecular markers.
• Biological identification using molecular and cytogenetic markers.
