This project investigates the evolution of multicellularity in cyanobacteria, focusing on whether cellular differentiation drives this transition. It combines experimental evolution with phylogenomic analysis to understand the genetic basis of multicellular traits.
Understanding the evolution of multicellularity and cellular differentiation/ complexity is one of the greatest challenges in biology.
Of particular interest is to determine the evolutionary processes (selective causes) and mechanisms underlying the evolutionary transition from single cells to multicellular organisms.This project will use cyanobacteria as a model system to determine whether cellular differentiation is a cause or consequence of multicellularity. A novel theory will be tested, whi…
