Climate in Transition: Plants in Transition
No full textWe are living through a dramatic change in the world‘s climate. Butwhat does that mean for wild plants and animals? Do they standany chance at all of adapting to changing environmental conditionsin so short a time?In his lecture, Detlef Weigel will first explain the basics of evolutionaryresearch, including why evolution is always about compromise inorder to balance contradictory demands. He will then move on to hisown work and discuss predicting if and how plants might survive inthe climate of the future.
