Against the long-lasting dismissal of evolutionary significance of subindividual variation in plants, we show in this preprint that intraplant epigenetic mosaicism of somatic tissue (leaves) predicts the epigenetic and phenotypic divergence of pollen within the plant www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Transgenerational imprint of subindividual variation: somatic epigenetic divergence within trees cascades into epigenetic and phenotypic pollen divergence

The evolutionary significance of somatic mosaicism created within plants by random epigenetic drift or localized responses to the environment will rest on its transgenerational implications. This pape...

Measuring shrub #xylem #rings? We tested our INDB tool in #shrub thin sections and got veeery nice results!! Faster measurements, better cross-dating! 🪵🏔️💍

Giulia Resente@resenteg.bsky.social · 2mo ago

🌿 New paper out! doi.org/10.1016/j.de... Here we introduce INBD, a machine-learning framework for automated shrub-ring detection and measurement. Tested on two Arctic–alpine shrubs, INBD improved cross-dating performance and analyzed images 5.5× faster than manual measurements. #Dendroecology #ML

Has climate warming shifted alpine boundaries upward? Kirkpatrick et al found remarkable stability in the alpine–moorland ecotone across three Tasmanian mountains from 1986–2020, with no clear upslope movement despite rising temperatures.
