@usuitakuji.bsky.socialI'm excited to share that my first paper is finally out and about! We unpack how the resource cost of traits varies across environments. I did this work during my MSc at UBC @ubcbiodiversity.bsky.social, @zoology.ubc.ca. I'm grateful for all I learned from @sarperotto.bsky.social in this journey.
Show PostSuper interesting paper exploring the molecular basis of left-right asymmetry in of enantiostyly in butterfly lilies! The style bend and rotate before flowering to avoid the anther (and prevent self-pollination). Controlled by a hemizygous locus supergene! 🤩 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Show PostPhew! With a lot of blood, sweat, and tears over the years, we introduce a new way of thinking about thermal performance curves in endotherms. We propose that thermal imbalance, quantified using net sensible heat flux, provides a helpful axis for predicting performance. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
Show PostAfter years of studying root development, I was drawn to duckweeds, as many species have lost roots. In this Tansley Insight in @newphyt.bsky.social , we explore other plants that have independently evolved rootlessness. nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/PYNXFP....
Show PostNew paper out in @jevbio.bsky.social ! We show that adaptation that likely evolved in response to postglacial warming in rear-edge populations could improve the resilience of these populations to future warming, especially compared to populations in the rest of the range. doi.org/10.1093/jeb/...
