Population dynamics of Gladiolus imbricatus in Estonia. Impact of the land use on the age structure and size of population.
The role of multitrophic interactions ( i.e. mycorrhizal, mycophyllae, rhizobium, nematodes etc.) in vascular plant community life. How the plant community structure is influenced by the naturally co-occurring symbiont’s community?
Experimental study of the role of arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) in plant competition and seedling establishment. Does the balance of competition and seedling recruitment depend on the mycorrhizal symbiosis? What is the role of AMF diversity in the maintenance of vascular plant species diversity?
