Botany One on Nostr: They grew Italian and Swedish Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes at both native sites, ...
They grew Italian and Swedish Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes at both native sites, using soil from each location. The team transplanted 2,080 seedlings, ensuring a robust sample size. They tracked plant survival, fruit production, and seed count. By comparing plant performance across different site-soil combinations, the researchers could isolate the impacts of climate and soil type on plant fitness and adaptation.
