Published in 2020 at "American Journal of Botany"

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1550

Abstract: Premise How genetic variation within a species affects phytochemical composition is a fundamental question in botany. The ratio of two specialized metabolites in Cannabis sativa, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD), can be grouped into three… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "American journal of botany"

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16097

Abstract: Wild plant species provide excellent examples of qualitative traits that evolve in response to environmental challenges (e.g., flower color, heavy metal tolerance, cyanogenesis, and male sterility). In addition to such discrete characters, a dazzling array… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "American journal of botany"

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1645

Abstract: Phenotypic variation determines the capacity of plants to adapt to changing environments and to colonize new habitats. Deciphering the mechanisms contributing to plant phenotypic variation and their effects on plant ecological interactions and evolutionary dynamics… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "American Journal of Botany"

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1822

Abstract: Like many evolutionary geneticists, I am fascinated by genes underlying potentially adaptive traits that differentiate populations. While such traits are obviously important, I have, in part through my own work on adaptation to whole‐ genome… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Phytotherapy Research"

DOI: 10.1002/ptr.5997

Abstract: Antimicrobial resistance presents a gigantic challenge to society. We cannot simply look for new synthetic variations of established drugs, we must look towards new, technological assassins. Mother Nature’s toolbox is full of such antimicrobial assassins… read more here.
