معرفی
Martin Vastrade is a researcher at the Research Unit in Environmental and Evolutionary Biology, University of Namur. His work spans genetics, evolutionary biology, and freshwater ecology, with a focus on invasive species like the clam genus Corbicula and environmental stress responses in insects.
- Primary affiliation: University of Namur, Institute of Life-Earth-Environment
Research Interests: Martin's research explores the genetic and evolutionary mechanisms in invasive aquatic species, environmental stress adaptation, and ecological conservation. Key areas include:
- Androgenesis in Corbicula clams and its evolutionary implications
- Impact of salinity on genetic diversity in freshwater ecosystems
- Genetic mixing between sexual and asexual lineages
- Agri-environment schemes for bee conservation
Recent Publications: His recent articles examine radioresistance in ants (2024), meiotic transitions in clams (2024), salinity effects on Corbicula diversity (2022), genetic hybridization in invasive species (2022), and woody plant pollen as bee resources (2022). These works highlight interdisciplinary trends in genetics, environmental science, and conservation biology.
