-Disentangling the Gordian knot of the Verbenaceae - Lantana L. and Lippia L. in the Andes of South America
Project summary:
Field explorations are planned to collect Lippia and Lantana plants from unknown or poorly collected areas in Ecuador and Peru. This will help to decide upon the conservation status of species concerned. Subsequently, by means of molecular phylogenetic studies, relationship and boundaries between species are aimed to be resolved.
