Understanding the diversity of the giant genus Peperomia (Piperaceae): a hyperdiverse group of tropical herbs

Project summary:

Peperomia is a pantropical genus related to the economically important black pepper. The taxonomy and evolutionary relationships of Peperomia are still poorly understood. My research will fill this gap increasing the documentation and taxonomic sampling through collecting in hyperdiverse zones, thus enabling the reconstruction of a more well-sampled phylogeny.
