Updating the taxonomy, phylogeny and biogeography of Gentianella from Peru

Project summary:

The proposal aims to bring us closer to the knowledge of the diversity, distribution, and evolution of Gentianella in Peru, through arduous field work, study of scientific collections, morphological evaluation and phylogenetic analysis. These updated data will contribute to fundamental knowledge, conservation and management of the Gentianella genus in Peru.
