Another preprint to share from the Ferris Lab @ferrisifolius.bsky.social! This project started as co-author Aditi Mahesh’s undergrad honors thesis and became my first dive into bioinformatics. Excited to share these results on the genomics of photoperiod adaptation!! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
The genomic basis of local adaptation to photoperiod across altitude in a self-fertilizing monkeyflower
Local adaptation along altitudinal gradients is well documented in many plant species, however the genetic basis of adaptive variation over these steep environmental clines remains poorly understood. ...

Very proud of the team effort that went into this! UG’s Stef De Castro (pKA) and Brooke Morton (13C- NMR), wonderfully mentored by recently minted PhD Amer El-Samman (logS)! It was the smoking gun for us that embeddings from GCNNs could learn actual chemistry #ProudPI
