Miquel Riba Rovira

Miquel Riba Rovira is a Researcher in the Department of Animal Biology, Plant Biology and Ecology at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB). He holds a Ph.D. and Llicenciat from UAB (1991 and 1981, respectively). His work contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goals related to biodiversity and ecological sustainability.

Research Interests: Dr. Riba Rovira focuses on plant genetics, biodiversity conservation, ecological adaptation, and population dynamics. His studies on species such as Leontodon longirostris and Taxus baccata explore genetic diversity, demographic processes, and environmental adaptation.

Recent Research Trends: His publications highlight the genetic and ecological factors influencing plant species' adaptation, conservation strategies, and population dynamics. Key themes include genetic diversity in colonizing species, niche modeling for tree species, and the impact of environmental factors on fitness traits.

• Grants & Projects: Investigator in the ENGRESCAT project (2023–2025), focusing on genome sequencing of plant species.
• Supervised Work: Supervisor of 17 research works, though specific student names are not listed here.

Labs/Teams: Collaborates in interdisciplinary teams addressing biodiversity and conservation challenges, as evident in his project and dataset contributions.
