  Research Interests

Work in Barbara Schaal's lab focuses on the evolutionary genetics of plants, often in collaboration with staff and students of the Missouri Botanical Garden. Research projects span the range from molecular evolution of genetics, systematics, and quantitative genetics. Schaal studies plant species native to the U.S., tropical crops and their wild relatives, and Arabidopsis.
