Systematics of the genus Parasopubia (Orobanchaceae)
Project summary:
An integrative approach based on morphological, molecular, anatomical, and micro morphological data will definitely helps to produce a stable classification for the genus Parasopubia. The grant money is planned to collect all available specimens of Parasopubia and to establish collaboration with a world specialist (Dr. Gerald M. Schneeweiss, Department of Botany and Biodiversity Research, University of Vienna), for analysis of phylogenetic data.
