LAMOL/UEFS Head: Dr. Cássio van den Berg

The Plant Molecular Systematics Laboratory is part of the Biological Sciences Departament, and was created in 2002 by the Universidade Estadual de Feira de Santana, with resources of the MCTI under the Millenium Institutes Program and university money. It gives support for research in molecular systematics and genomics of plants and fungi in themes such as phylogenomics, population genomics, DNA barcoding, genome editing, among others. It also holds the DNA Bank of the Plants and Fungi from Brazil, the largest of its kind in the country, with more than 40,000 samples and more than 7,000 species
