🚨 New preprint out on diatom adaptation!

Using population genomics and transcriptomics, we investigated how the ancestrally marine diatom Skeletonema marinoi colonized, and adapted to, the brackish Baltic Sea 🧬🌊🧪 - and found hundreds of genes under selection. Link below. 👇

For those of you who don't know me - I run a seaweed farm in Loudon Tennessee, using the ancient ocean left behind in an underground lake via well water. I also research mushroom dirt and have LOTS of pets. I love bioactive enclosures, and my passion is the reef hobby with seaweed+how cool it is!

Terrible news today:

This year, one-third of coral cover has been destroyed in two northern sections of the Great Barrier reef due to anthropogenic heating.

Results for the southern sections (which were even hotter) have not been officially released.
