Evolutionary plant biologist tracks genetic diversity shifts under rapid environmental change
Moisés Expósito-Alonso, recipient of the 2026 GSA Early Career Medal, orchestrated an elaborate, multi-site evolution experiment to understand how plants evolve—or fail to adapt—and may be at risk when faced with rapid environmental changes.
How many genes is too many? Breeding crops to withstand the elements
Researchers show that the key to helping crops withstand shifting conditions may lie in balancing speed with flexibility.
