Taxonomy and phytogeography of vascular plants. Specifically interested in microspeciation of annual hemiparasites belonging to Orobanchaceae (Melampyrum, Euphrasia, Rhinanthus), importance of hybridization, isolation and reproductive systems
Distribution and migration of Central European plants, relict occurences, rare species biology,, floristics and environmental protection
Project leader of the international project “Květena Šumavy /Flora des Böhmerwaldes”, more information available here: https://www.florasilvaegabretae.eu

Taxonomy of vascular plants (Centaurea, Ranunculus sect. Batrachium, and many others)
Evolutionary and historical processes (polyploidy, hybridization, apomixis and other breeding systems, variation at population level, phylogeography)
Use of laboratory methods (flow cytometry, DNA sequencing and various population genetics markers), experimental approaches (cultivation, crossing experiments), statistical analysis of data (both from the field and the laboratory)
Distribution mapping, plant determination, nature conservation
