 | | Bierner’s research focuses on phylogenetic and systematic studies of flowering plants, in particular members of subtribe Gaillardiinae of the sunflower family, Asteraceae. |
 | | Bierner uses data from morphologic, cytologic and molecular studies to define the taxonomic units within subtribe Gaillardiinae (i.e., genera, subgenera, sections, subsections, species, subspecies, varieties) and to better understand their evolutionary history and present day relationships. |
