Finally, big paper #1 from GrENE-net, the unique distributed Arabidopsis evolution experiment! What an achievement, particularly by Moi, Niek and Francois who conceived the project (in Tübingen), and by the incredibly smart Moi Lab data analysis team: Lucas, Tati, Meixi, Xing and Moi!
Thank you @adrigov.bsky.social for the nice summary in Plantae.org of our paper!

The Moi lab is joining the IGI and is using CRISPR to study how plant genomes evolve to adapt to climate change over time.

Our team appeared in The Daily Californian news!
Discussing our experimental evolution in Science Magazine www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... and a recent paper on the threat of genetic diversity loss in PNAS doi.org/10.1073/pnas...

In a new article by Wu et al., a large team of collaborators led by the Moi lab addressed this question by doing a huge outdoor evolution experiment at 30 places with different climates.
