Pär Ingvarssons lab

Welcome to Pär Ingvarsson's Lab

Our lab has a general interest in population and quantitative genetics of adaptations in both wild and domesticate plants. Some of the major research topics in the lab include:

• The genetic basis of adaptation in plant life history traits
• Population genomics consequences of linked selection
• The genetic basis of heterosis
• Genomics-assisted breeding and genomic prediction

We combine population and quantitative genetics analyses with bioinformatics and genomics to study questions in a range of perennial species, including Populus, Picea and Eucalyptus.

Our current research is funded by VR, KAW and SSF.
