Carrie presented her three chapters at lab meeting this week (via zoom) which involve (1) an investigation of evolution and diversification of underground storage organs and correlations with climate parameters across the order Liliales, (2) an investigation of genes underlying tuber formation in Bomarea edulis, and (3) contributing to RevGadgets to enable visualization and analysis of complex comparative phylogenetic data and results.
