Brilliant new paper by Jill Anderson and colleagues using 9 years of transplant experiments and integral projection models to predict the capacity of populations for adaptation and persistence under new climates in Boechera stricta. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Adaptation and gene flow are insufficient to rescue a montane plant under climate change
Climate change increasingly drives local population dynamics, shifts geographic distributions, and threatens persistence. Gene flow and rapid adaptation could rescue declining populations yet are seld...

My preprint is finally out on bioRxiv! 🌿🧬 It’s the result of years of work and thinking about how whole-genome duplication shapes evolution.
If you're into polyploidy and adaptation, have a look! ✨

Whole-genome duplication reshapes adaptation: autotetraploid Arabidopsis arenosa leverages its high genetic variation to compensate for selection constraints. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.04.01.646563v1

Excited to share our new preprint on bioRxiv! 🚀 We explore the genomic basis of serpentine adaptation in two ploidies and species of Alyssum and reveal evolutionary convergence with Arabidopsis. Check it out! 🌿🔬 #evolution #genomics #arabidopsis #serpentine
Genomic basis of adaptation to serpentine soil in two Alyssum species shows convergence with Arabidopsis across 20 million years of divergence https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.27.640498v1

Our new paper shows that plasticity that has evolved to deal with one stressful situation, can help plants to adapt rapidly to new stressful situations. doi.org/10.1073/pnas... @meebangor.bsky.social @rbgkew.bsky.social @ukri.org @pnas.org

Gabriele's paper is out in PNAS! He found a large number of genes with repeated sweeps in multiple plant species. Most interestingly: they tend to be peripheral in co-expression networks (low pleiotropy), consistent with mig-sel theory!! @gabnocgenomics.bsky.social www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Preprint finally out! I show that eco-evo feedback can drive a tipping point where genetic drift overwhelms adaptation. This can result in a contraction of a species' range border or range fragmentation. Fragmentation is abrupt and arises readily under rapid temporal change. doi.org/10.1101/2025...

On today's World Soil Day, we have a second look at ETH Professor Sebastian Dötterl's opinion on why #Ukraine's #Soil is so valuable and why its geopolitical importance will only increase. brnw.ch/21wPdeu
Waging a war for land and soil
The war in Ukraine is also a war for soil. Sebastian Dötterl, Professor for Soil Resources at ETH Zurich explains what makes Ukrainian soil so valuable and why it will become even more geopolitically ...
