Overview

Guido W. Grimm is affiliated with the University of Vienna in Austria and has contributed extensively to the fields of Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology, as well as Agricultural and Biological Sciences. Their research primarily focuses on topics such as genetic diversity and population structure, genomics and phylogenetic studies, plant pathogens and fungal diseases, plant diversity and evolution, and plant and fungal species descriptions. Additionally, some of their work addresses hearing impairment and communication and hand gesture recognition systems.

The scientist has coauthored numerous publications with colleagues including Thomas Denk, Marco Cosimo Simeone, Ernst-Detlef Schulze, Simone Cardoni, and Roberta Piredda.

Some of the venues where Guido W. Grimm's work has been published include bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), The Plant Journal, Royal Society Open Science, Annals of Botany, and Willdenowia - Annals of the Botanic Garden and Botanical Museum Berlin-Dahlem.

Recent papers authored or coauthored by Grimm include:

  • 5S-IGS rDNA in wind-pollinated trees (Fagus L.) encapsulates 55 million years of reticulate evolution and hybrid origins of modern species, 2021, The Plant Journal
  • Evolutionary dynamics in the dispersal of sign languages, 2020, Royal Society Open Science
  • Niche evolution in a northern temperate tree lineage: biogeographical legacies in cork oaks (Quercus section Cerris), 2023, Annals of Botany
  • Phylogenetic relationships in the southern African genus Drosanthemum (Ruschioideae, Aizoaceae), 2020, PeerJ
  • High-throughput sequencing of 5S-IGS in oaks: Exploring intragenomic variation and algorithms to recognize target species in pure and mixed samples, 2020, Molecular Ecology Resources

The scientist's research integrates various subfields such as molecular biology, genetics, cell biology, ecology, evolution, behavior and systematics, and plant science. This multidisciplinary approach supports investigations into phylogenetic relationships, species descriptions, and evolutionary dynamics relevant to both plants and fungi.
