Preliminary scope of work
Cieľom práce je vyriešenie evolučnej histórie hygrofytických druhov z rodu Cardamine z oblasti Anatólie, Kaukazu a Balkánskeho polostrova, tradične klasifikovaných do skupín C. amara, C. pratensis a C. tenera. Autor sa zameria na vysvetlenie evolučných procesov a environmentálnych faktorov, ktoré sa podieľali na diverzifikácii a rozšírení dnešných druhov, ako aj na objasnenie fylogenetických vzťahov medzi druhmi z juhozápadnej Ázie a Balkánu. Pre tento účel bude aplikovaný integratívny prístup, kombinujúci metódu využívajúcu „next generation sequencing” (Hyb-Seq), tradičné molekulárne markery, karyologické analýzy (prietoková cytometria, počítanie chromozómov) metódy multivariačnej morfometriky a analýzy ekologických ník.
Preliminary scope of work in English
The thesis aims to resolve evolutionary history of the hygrophytic species of the genus Cardamine in the Anatolia-Caucasus region and the Balkan Peninsula, traditionally classified to the C. amara, C. pratensis and C. tenera groups. The author will focus on explaining which evolutionary processes and environmental factors have shaped the diversification and distribution of the extant species, as well as elucidating the phylogenetic relationships between the representatives from Southwestern Asia and the Balkans. For this purpose, an integrative approach will be used, combining the method based on next generation sequencing (Hyb-Seq), conventional molecular markers, karyological analyses (flow cytometry, chromosome counting), methods of multivariate morphometrics, and ecological niche analyses.
