Anže Žerdoner Čalasan's Master thesis was awarded with the Prize for the Best Plant Science Master Thesis, which was carried out at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU) in the year 2017
Title of awarded thesis
"Morphological, phylogenetic and taxonomic analysis of selected Trachelomonas (Euglenida) strains"
Anže Žerdoner Čalasan clarified three taxa of Trachelomonas taxa that were validly described already 100 years ago. In doing this he was able to apply also genetic information for reliable species determination.
