研究领域

My research interests include integrating ecological and evolutionary questions but my specific plans concentrate on two lines of research, conservation genetics and evolution of freshwater fishes and the dynamics of biological invasions in freshwaters. Geographic structure of genetic and morphological diversity. To study phylogeography and phylogenetics of Eurasian freshwater fishes. The natural and anthropogenic processes which determine levels of genetic variation. To study the impact of habitat fragmentation, historic isolation, habitat size and structure on genetic diversity and gene flow within aquatic populations. Population genetics of aquatic invaders. Identification of invasion pathways, number of colonising individuals and populations, population bottlenecks during colonisation. To investigate evolutionary processes in invading populations. Hybridisation between non-indigenous and native species. Identification of pure species and hybrids and estimation genetic introgression into native gene pools. Evolution of adaptive traits. The relative impact of selection and genetic drift on ecologically significant traits
