My main research topic is evolutionary ecology of plants, including resource allocation to reproduction and its consequences, modification of sexual expression and plant-pollinator interactions. In addition, I conduct research in community ecology, with emphasis in community structure of spiders, dragonflies and saproxylic beetles.
