The main goal of the project is an analysis of patterns of genetic variation in polyploid complexes representing different groups of vascular plants in connection with their evolution and geographical distributions. Groups with known aneuploidy and those with holocentric chromosomes are included, as are groups with no variation at given ploidy levels. Model species groups or groups with infraspecific variation include Eleocharis uniglumis, Festuca pallens, Cardamine amara, Cardamine raphanifolia, and Cardaminopsis arenosa. This research will be conducted by comparing non-coding chloroplast trnL(UAA) intron and trnL(UAA)-trnF(GAA) intergenic spacer DNA sequences and by studying the absolute and relative DNA content variation within and between populations.
