How do organisms and pathogens evolve and adapt to the environment? This was the question that the University Research Priority Program Evolution in Action sought to address. The initiator and former co-director Beat Keller looks back: https://t.co/xWpUJ4bwpp

News from the @roulinlab @uzh_evolution ! We use #ONT long reads to profile the expression of retroTEs in natural #Arabidopsis accessions exposed to heat stress 🔥and find striking differences between individual copies in the three genetic backgrounds 👇

Thank you @uzh_evolution for funding our project.

Using #MachineLearning, our funded project delves into regulatory networks of Arabidopsis thaliana & Marchantia polymorpha. Unveiling insights crucial for understanding plant evolution. 🌿🔍 #Research #EvolutionaryBiology

[Kentaro K. Shimizu 清水健太郎 @kkshimizu1]

Our new paper in Nature Communications! A former PhD student Chowlih studied the evolution of selfing, a classic question since Darwin. Her transgenic evidence supported Haldane's sieve in polyploids. @kakuni1113 @longzhit @tohoku_u_prg @uzh_evolution https://t.co/lYrCJMWbjq
