I work in the Forest Ecology and Management research group at the Division Forest, Nature and Landscape of the K.U.Leuven. I learned about OpenWetWare on SciBlog 2008 London, and I've joined because I want to maintain an Open Notebook on my Coffea arabica genetic diversity research. The main project for which this OWW profile and the open notebook were created, is finalized since september 2011. The data is archived in the open access repository Dryad doi:10.5061/dryad.37r9p and the main findings are published in the open access journal Evolutionary Applications.
