Saccharomyces Genome Database: Do #hybrids handle heat, cold better? ❄️🔥 Over 140 generations at 5C and 31C, #yeast #F2 hybrids adapted fast, were ~4× fitter in cold, more resilient to sudden flips. #Hybridization could turbocharge #adaptation, impacting #conservation & #agriculture. #Evolution www.yeastgenome.org/reference/41...
