Research focus:
The primary focus of my research includes symbiotic relations between mycorrhizal fungi (ectomycorrhizal and arbuscular fungi) and woody plant species in a forest and anthropogenic environment.
In my work, I try to provide answers to a question to what extent diverse environmental conditions and the conditions related to the genotype of host trees affect the quantitative and qualitative structure of mycorrhytic fungi communities and other soil microorganisms.
I also wish to learn how these factors affect biomass, species composition and the dynamics of mycelium production, as an essential structural elements of mycorrhizal symbiosis.
In my work, I use a variety of research methods, starting from morphological and anatomical analyses of mycorrhizae, biochemical indicators specific to various groups of microorganisms (ergosterol, fatty acids), as well as liquid chromatography and gas chromatography techniques, all the way to molecular methods (Sanger sequencing, and massive next generation sequencing) aimed at identifying fungal symbionts.

Keywords:
mycorrhiza, mycelium, ergosterol, fatty acids, bacteria, genotype of host trees
