Collaborative Research: Comparative genomics and physiology to discover integrated mechani — NSF Award to University of California

Most species are adapted to live in relatively stable environments. Rare are those species that tolerate environments that fluctuate rapidly and severely. Little is known about what drives the physiological flexibility needed for species to survive and thrive in highly variable environments. This research will use gene

AbstractMost species are adapted to live in relatively stable environments. Rare are those species that tolerate environments that fluctuate rapidly and severely. Little is known about what drives the physiological flexibility needed for species to survive and thrive in highly variable environments. This research will use genetic and physiological tools and approaches developed for North American killifish to gain an integrative understanding of how extreme physiological flexibility is assembled and how
