Research Shows That Genomics Can Match Plant Variety to Climate Stresses

Thursday, July 9, 2015 - 09:30 in Biology & Nature

A new study on the genomic signatures of adaptation in crop plants can help predict how crop varieties respond to stress from their environments. It is the first study to document that these genomic signatures of adaptation can help identify plants that will do well under certain stresses, such drought or toxic soils.
