- 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
