Post doc in Plant Conservation Genetics / Phylogeny
Description : We are seeking a highly motivated and independent individual to carry out a research project on the phylogeny/conservation genetics of selected, endemic taxa. The successful candidate will be responsible of sampling, selection of suitable molecular markers and phylogenetic reconstruction for three angiosperm taxa with uncertain taxonomy (within the Erysimum, Brassica and Aquilegia genera). Upon taxonomic status confirmation, population genetics, demographic and ecological studies will be carried out to provide conservation guidelines for the most interesting species. The position, initially granted for a time span of three years, may be renewed and upgraded depending on the successful completion of the project. Tasks: Field identification, voucher preparation and sampling of natural plant populations. Selection/developement of suitable markers and phylogenetic reconstruction. Characterization of within- and between- population genetic variability and structuring (DNA fingerprinting, sequencing); paternity analysis. Application of landscape genetics approaches. Field experiments aimed at determination of demographic and ecological parameters (determination of selfing vs. outcrossing rates, self-incompatibility, hybridization potential, population size, etc.). Elaboration of threat status indexes and of conservation startegies; Data storage, management and analysis. Preparation of scientific papers and reports. Participation to national and international conferences/workshops. Supervision of students.
