Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Felicia Oliva-Tejera"
- Felicia Oliva-Tejera's research primarily focuses on the genetic diversity, evolutionary relationships, and conservation of Lotus species within the Macaronesian region, particularly in relation to bird pollination and endemism.
- Her studies have demonstrated that standard DNA barcoding methods may be insufficient for distinguishing closely related species within the Lotus genus, leading to the exploration of additional genetic markers for improved classification.
- Oliva-Tejera has emphasized the importance of genetic divergence analysis for the conservation of endangered species, such as Lotus kunkelii, providing insights into their taxonomy and the implications for preserving biodiversity in the Canary Islands.
