Specialist in the field of molecular genetics, genosystematics, phylogenetics, evolution of marine and freshwater fish. The results of the scientific work of O. A. Radchenko make a serious contribution to the system of knowledge about the biological diversity of fish. Important generalizations are made in the field of phylogeny, phylogeography and population-genetic structure of the evolutionarily taxonomically complex group of salmon fish-char of the genus Salvelinus. For the first time, a molecular genetic system of a group of marine fish-the Zoarcoidei – has been developed, which makes a significant contribution to solving issues related to the composition and position of genera, subfamilies and families, the systematic affiliation of disputed taxa, kinship relationships and the evolution of a large suborder of perch-like fish.
