1. Reproductive strategies and liming responses in forest field-layer flora
Abstract : Liming increased species richness, in accordance with the species pool hypothesis, and number of plants of individual species in beech forest field-layer vegetation, by increasing establishment by seedlings and vegetative offspring. Turnover rates also increased, suggesting the explanatory value of the carousel model. READ MORE

2. The role of microclimate for the performance and distribution of forest plants
Abstract : Microclimatic gradients may have large influence on individual vital rates and population growth rates of species, and limit their distributions. Therefore, I focused on the influence of microclimate on individual performance and distribution of species. READ MORE

3. Population biology of the clonal plant Ranunculus lingua
Abstract : The scope of this thesis was to identify, describe and quantify important life-history traits for the pseudoannual aquatic plant Ranunculus lingua in different ecological settings, by comparing populations from geographically marginal vs. central habitats. READ MORE

4. A molecular network mediating adventitious root initiation in Arabidopsis thaliana
Abstract : To adapt to the ever-changing rhizosphere conditions, land plants evolved a sophisticated root system. The genetic determinants of the root system establishment have been the targets of natural selection, resulting in a very complex but robust molecular networks and circuits. READ MORE

5. Drivers of evolutionary change in Podospora anserina
Abstract : Genomic diversity is shaped by a myriad of forces acting in different directions. Some genes work in concert with the interests of the organism, often shaped by natural selection, while others follow their own interests. The latter genes are considered “selfish”, behaving either neutrally to the host, or causing it harm. READ MORE
