Prevalence and underlying mechanisms of #Phylosymbiosis in #LandPlants
How did plants evolve to cope with such a challenging and changing habitat?
It turns out the answer is in 600 million years of stress! A research team led by our Uni compared algae and plants spanning million years of independent evolution. Using advanced bioinformatic methods, they pinpointed a shared stress response network: https://www.uni-goettingen.de/en/3240.html?id=7740

🔔#ERGASeminar | Next Monday, May 27 at 12pm CEST, join us for a talk with speakers Iker Irisarri
and Maaike Bierenbroodspot as they discuss how phylogenomics and multi-omics are helping unveil the origin of land plants 🌱

"Diverse and full of #SeaLife, the Earth's Devonian era—taking place more than 370 million years ago—saw the emergence of the first seed-bearing #plants, which spread as large #forests across the #continents of #Gondwana and #Laurussia."
