Recent Happenings

NSF has funded a multi-year study of flower color evolution and genomic constraints in Arctic mustards that I proposed with Matt Carlson (University of Alaska Anchorage).

We'll be comparing pollinator and non-pollinator agents of selection on flower color polymorphisms in a pair of Arctic mustards along a transect from Anchorage to Prudhoe Bay! Have a look at the brief project summary if you're interested in what we're up to in Alaska and back in the lab at SCU.

Metcalf Jewelflower Conservation Genomics Project Funded!

I am investigating the niche breadth, reproductive biology, and genomic uniqueness of the serpentine endemic Metcalf Jewelflower (Streptanthus albidus ssp. albidus) with Co-PIs Sharon Strauss (UC Davis) and Jessica Wright (US Forest Service).
