Black mangrove rapid evolution (or plasticity) experiment is kicking off!

We have just started a pilot experiment with black mangroves (Avicennia schaueriana) to investigate the role of genetics, epigenetics, and phenotypic plasticity on the colonization of new environments! Soon, we will be measuring physiological traits and constructing genomic and 'epigenomic' sequencing libraries.

Thanks André and all the team for putting the energy and effort to grow >100 plants in our green house.
