OverviewAI-generated summary
Teofil Nakov's research investigates the evolutionary adaptations of diatoms, a group of phytoplankton, to diverse environmental conditions. His work utilizes genomic and phylogenomic approaches to understand the genetic basis of local adaptation in these organisms. Nakov has published research on how genome-wide changes in metabolic processes contribute to adaptation along complex environmental gradients, such as salinity clines in marine environments like the Baltic Sea.
His publications also explore the spread of invasive species, specifically focusing on the introduction and dissemination of freshwater diatoms in the United States. Nakov's research has been supported by grants and he collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Andrew J. Alverson, Elizabeth C. Ruck, and Eveline Pinseel. He maintains an active lab website to disseminate his work. With an h-index of 20 and over 1,500 citations across 65 publications, Nakov is recognized as a highly cited researcher.
