This project uses a reverse adaptive genetics approach to study the genetic basis of adaptation in the fungal species Neurospora discreta. By analyzing genomes across different environments, it aims to understand how organisms adapt to global changes.
A central goal in the modern era of evolutionary biology is to understand the genetic basis of adaptation.
Microbes are ideal for such work because their genomes are small and maintaining large experimental populations is inexpensive.
The difficulty in working with microbes has been identifying adaptive phenotypes beyond simple metabolic traits.
The revolution in sequencing technologies make it possible to use a « reverse adaptive genetics » approach where the researcher scans genomes to identif…
