Yay to spending time with plant nerds! Thank you for the tour and specimen viewing at @stanfordjrbp.bsky.social

Very proud to present our first paper from the Moi Lab Carnegie common garden! @mexpositoalonso.bsky.social

Human-mediated land-use and climate change occur simultaneously, but how do they interact to shape adaptive dynamics? Super excited to share the first paper from the Kreiner lab, led by postdoc extraordinaire @rpineau.bsky.social

1/5 ✨Proud✨ to see our review with Katie Peichel as featured content in Trends_Ecol_Evo, with my beloved alpine lineages of Arabidopsis arenosa on the cover. Hope that you find it interesting! doi.org/10.1016/j.tree.2023.11.007

An update: fully cracked, over easy.

Undescribed species diversity in Brewer's #jewelflower illuminates potential mechanisms of diversification associated with serpentine endemism New #AJB research by Kyle Christie, N. Ivalú Cacho, Jacob Macdonald et al. doi.org/10.1002/ajb2... #botany #plantscience #biodiversity #Brassicaceae

Today is the last day to oppose the gutting of the Endangered Species Act, I just did and it’s not hard:

A fried egg poppy in that “just cracked” stage 🥚 (Matilija poppy or Romneya coulteri)

A special find was this chaparral clarkia, Clarkia affinis, which I only found one of and it was growing proudly on this large rock.

The *close up* of one of my faves, the white globe lily! Those hairs!

Very fun spring wildflower spotting this weekend on a hike at Sierra Vista Open Space Preserve! 🌸🌼🌱 (peep Castilleja foliolosa, Dipterostemon capitatus, Calochortus albus, and Stachys rigida)

A forgotten soil cube harbors this hearty hermit.

Excited to share my first first-author paper! 🌱🧬 'Planting Genomes in the Wild: Arabidopsis From Genetics History to the Ecology and Evolutionary Genomics Era' with Dr. Megan Ruffely and @mexpositoalonso.bsky.social doi.org/10.1146/annu... #PlantScience #Genomics #Arabidopsis #EvoEco

Check out this funny Arabidopsis grown outside in our common garden at UC Berkeley. This plant experienced a lot of herbivory and the herbivorized center became very woody?

Very happy to share this preprint utilizing herbarium specimens to examine how California wildflowers (Streptanthus and Caulanthus clade) respond to precipitation timing and amount. Proud to be part of this collaborative work led by Megan Bontrager with the team at UC Davis!

Beautiful premiere of The Land Around Us by several lab mates! This documentary followed their journey through learning about land and our relationships to it in the Bay Area from four local experts with different approaches to stewardship and perspectives on the earth around us.

Little planting this morning at Berkeley field site 🌱🌱🌱

Defining fitness in evolutionary ecology A primer for learners at all career stages! w/ @seemasheth.bsky.social, @emjo.bsky.social, Megan DeMarshe, Jill Anderson Please contribute a Primer to this series! Let's make teaching/learning materials more accessible. #Evolution 🌍🌎🌏 #PlantScience 🧪

It's awful to think that Duke is giving up on their herbarium. So many irreplaceable specimens, and so much more to be gained from them as new methods are developed! If you agree, consider signing this petition to show support for the herbarium: chng.it/7NrcD4jNnM

Proud to be a part of this very cool paper!

Coexistence at the Stanford field site! This little Arabidopsis is ready to flower, stay tuned.

Interested in living and working in Yosemite NP this summer? Do you like working outside with beautiful plants (#Monkeyflowers)?!?! Are you interested in ecology and evolution? Then apply to be a field technician in my lab this spring/summer 2024!!!! Please Repost!!! #Mimuluspropaganda
