OverviewAI-generated summary

Maribeth Latvis's research investigates plant evolution, genetics, and the ecological dynamics of plant communities. Her work examines the evolutionary history and patterns of genetic diversity within plant lineages, with a focus on tallgrass prairie flora and invasive species such as *Microstegium vimineum*. She has explored the utility of DNA barcoding for plant identification and has investigated species-specific germination responses to environmental cues. Latvis also contributes to the field of invasion biology, examining its historical roots and future directions. Her scholarship is reflected in publications in peer-reviewed journals, and her academic profile includes an h-index of 9 and over 1,700 citations.
