RESEARCH THEMES :

1. Reproduction regime and gene dispersal capacity by pollen and seed

2. Local adaptation along environmental gradients at a fine spatial scale

3. Adaptive potential and the ability of tree populations to respond to selection over a small number of generations (microevolution)

4. Genetic variability of populations and species at the scale of the Mediterranean basin.
