Research focus:
My research focuses on fungal communities in forest ecosystems, with a particular emphasis on ectomycorrhizal fungi. I investigate their ecology, functional diversity, and the factors shaping their distribution across species-diverse managed forests, protected forest ecosystems, and forest nurseries. My approach integrates classical mycological methods—including fruitbody observation and morphological-anatomical techniques—with modern molecular tools. To identify ectomycorrhizal fungi, I employ Sanger sequencing and metagenomic analyses based on next-generation sequencing, targeting both soil-inhabiting and root-associated fungi. This combined methodology enables a comprehensive characterisation of fungal diversity within the studied ecosystems.

Keywords:
fungi, symbiosis, mycorrhiza, ectomycorrhiza, forest ecosystems, species diversity, functional diversity, molecular studies
