Our latest study explores how drought and pollinators shape the evolution of floral traits in Brassica rapa. We reveal how water scarcity drives earlier flowering, while pollinators select for larger flowers. Here's why this matters👇 #ClimateChange #Pollination #selection

04th of February, National day of Sri Lanka. I think it is the first time ever the SL community got to hoist a SL flag at the Legislative Assembly of NB Fredericton. It is truly amazing to see Canada recognizing its cultural diversity. @CBCNews @CBCNB #NB #Fredericton
