Abstract: |
The Phycology research group was founded at the end of the 1990s under its former name 'laboratory of Morphology, Ecology and Plant Systematics'. The research undertaken by the laboratory has gradually evolved from descriptive floristics and taxonomic studies towards biogeography, diversification, developmental biology and genomics of marine macroalgae (seaweed). More specifically, the following themes are studied:
Regarding their future services, the group would like to play a leading role in development of a seaweed aquaculture sector in Europe. Furthermore, the Phycology research group participates in both Belgian and international research projects and collaborates with several research groups worldwide. |
