Anneli Ehlers
Interested in intraspecific diversity and its role in ecosystem functioning.
During my Ph.D. – supervised by Boris Worm and Thorsten Reusch – I analysed the role of genotypic diversity in eelgrass Zostera marina for the resistance and resilience of eelgrass meadows under heat stress and eutrophication.
Currently I am working as a Post doc at the IFM-Geomar, Kiel, Germany trying to unravel the defence mechanisms of the brown algae Fucus vesiculosus, by comparing transcriptomes of grazed vs. ungrazed individuals.
