Yan Li

From 2014 to 2019, I studied for a PhD under the supervision of Mark van Kleunen and Marc stift at the University of Konstanz. My PhD work mainly involved two aspects: one is testing the hybridisation-invasion (H-I) hypothesis; the other is exploring the mechanisms of mating system evolution in Arabidopsis lyrata.
