- Wichtige Informationen: Variability and evolution of chemical signals
We investigate the causes and consequences of signal variability for communication in insects.
Prof. Dr. Joachim Ruther
- Wichtige Informationen: Chemical communication in insects
We study chemical cues and signals used by insects for communication and orientation within complex environments.
PD. Dr. Eva Schultner
- Wichtige Informationen: I want to understand how environment – and especially social environment – influences individual development and modulates evolution of complex traits.
Prof. Dr. Erhard Strohm
- Wichtige Informationen: Evolutionary and chemical ecology of insects
We study behavioural, physiological and chemical adaptations of insects focussing on interactions of bees and wasps with brood parasites and symbionts.
Prof. Dr. Lena Wilfert
- Wichtige Informationen: We study the evolution and ecology of host-parasite interactions in pollinators and other insects.
