[Concurrent 30] Living on the edge: Adaptation of Arabidopsis extremophyte relatives to harsh environments

Extremophytes, plants that inhabit harsh environments, represent novel genetic resources underexplored for their adaptations to multiple environmental stresses. Specifically, extremophytes that are closely related to Arabidopsis are ideal models for comparative multi-level analyses. This session will focus on systems biology research of Arabidopsis extremophyte relatives from physiological through molecular, “omics”, evolutionary, and ecological studies to elucidate mechanisms allowing these intriguing plants to survive the most extreme environments on the planet.
