The study published in Horticulture Research, analyzed natural and resynthesized B. napus lines to reveal how captured gene fragments are redistributed across the genome, shaped by changes in DNA methylation and small RNA pathways.

Unconditional pass for GBO today!! One (major) step closer to my doctorate! #womeninstem #ecology #polyploids #urbanecology

What I like about the Kirkpatrick and Barton model is that it’s based on population genetic parameters - local adaptation, migration, recombination - that we can measure on any eukaryote, no bespoke links between gene dosage and fitness. And the local adaptation model fits with data from #polyploids
