Anatomy

Recognition of plant organs and tissues that help to understand adaptation mechanisms, physiological processes, structural alterations, ontogenetic processes as well as to establish relationships between species, gender and families.

Bioindication of atmospheric pollution, detection of environmental risk areas and conservation of natural spaces.

The detailed description of the content of this line of research is included in the description of the group's research activity.

Bryology

Study of the bryophyte flora of Mediterranean environments. Biogeography of mosses and liverworts. Systematics and phylogeny of bryophytes. Assessment of the conservation status of bryophyte species.

Evolutionary Biology of Mediterranean Plants

Ex-situ conservation

Application of conservation techniques for endangered species, viability studies, germination physiology and seed and spore ageing.

Floristics

Floristics is the part of phytogeography dedicated to making inventory of systematic entities or taxa of a territory, i.e. the flora of that territory, as well as its area of distribution, which is fundamental for the development of plant conservation strategies.

Food fraud detection

Use of molecular markers based on DNA polymorphisms for the detection of food fraud of plant origin (food stabilisers, vegetable oils, spices).
