Jasmine K Janes

PeerJ Author

Summary

Broadly, research in my lab focuses on answering questions related to evolutionary processes such as speciation and co-evolution. We typically apply a multi-disciplinary approach (e.g. genomics, pollination biology) to several interacting taxa within a system (e.g. plant, insect, fungus).

Specific topics include: Vancouver Island dietary metagenomics, mountain pine beetle genomics, adaptive diversification in eucalypts and working toward a better understanding of the role that hybridization (and its barriers) play in chickweed and bog orchid species complexes.
