浪花直播 Interests
Gonzales is interested in plant evolutionary ecology and its implications for conservation and restoration. She focuses on questions addressing the role of evolutionary history and anthropogenic disturbance in shaping genetic variation in native species with economic importance and species performing important ecosystem services.
