RESEARCH AREA

  • biological activity of secondary metabolites of invasive plants with an emphasis on the evaluation of their pesticidal activity and ecotoxicity
  • epigeic macrofauna of areas with different environmental loads, with an emphasis on beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae)
  • abandoned and unused areas with stands of invasive neophytes with an emphasis on Canadian goldenrod (Solidago canadensis L.)
