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.
- Evolucion molecular y cariotipica y su relacion con la diferenciacion y especiacion vegetal, filogeografia y filogenia
- 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).
- Molecular evolution of nuclear ribosomal multigene families.Karyological and molecular study of the nuclear ribosomal 45S and 5S families, including their genomic location, molecular evolution, mechanisms of concerted evolution and phylogeographic and phylogenetic significance.
