The transition from #aquatic to #terrestrial #life has been one of the most significant evolutionary challenges.

This decisive process in the #evolution of life on Earth required a profound renewal of the genome.

But what changes did genomes undergo to facilitate the transition to the terrestrial environment?

Now, a new study reconstructs the key genomic adaptations at different stages of the evolutionary transition to terrestrial #ecosystems.

The results show that, although each lineage followed its own evolutionary path, many adaptive functions evolved independently and repeatedly.

Word of The Hour's Annual Survey @ https://wordofthehour.org/r/form

💡 Hypothesis: The #PhylogeneticRelatedness of #Terrestrial plants is more susceptible to climate filtering than that of #Aquatic plants.

Methods:
1️⃣ standardized effect size of phylogenetic diversity (PDses);
2️⃣ standardized effect size of mean phylogenetic distance (MPDses);
