It was fun to work on this meta-analysis of resurrection studies involving plants with Lillie Pennington, Steven Franks, Jill Anderson, and @elenahamann.bsky.social! doi.org/10.1002/ajb2...

Two decades of resurrection studies: What have we learned about contemporary evolution of plant species?

Premise Global climate change has altered the eco-evolutionary trajectories of plant species, leading to observed shifts in phenotypes, such as earlier flowering. However, disentangling the contribu...

That’s a wrap on the Cologne Spring Meeting 2025! A huge thanks to all participants, speakers, and organizers for making this event a wonderful success. Stay tuned for more news and discoveries from TRR341 and the world of plant science. #CologneSpringMeeting2025 #PlantScience #TRR341 #DFG

Next talk: “Survival heterosis of a montane wildflower varies with genetics and environment” by Cathy Rushworth. Understanding how genetic diversity boosts survival in varying environments. #Heterosis #WildflowerGenetics

Fantastic talk by Niek Scheepens @plantevoeco.bsky.social on resurrection ecology!! Resurrection studies were also beautifully showcased by @seemasheth.bsky.social #CologneSpringMeeting @trr341.bsky.social

We used a morphological approach to identify #megadroughts globally over the past 40 years and applied plant-greenness indices to determine the impacts on vegetation. Megadroughts are increasing in frequency, area and intensity on the global scale.
