PROJECT

Climate Change and Floriculture

DESCRIPTION

In her research for this project, Jess will examine climate change on crops and investigate the current and future status of sustainable agriculture. The research will uniquely focus on how warming and drought interactively affect the floral advertisements, such as flower size, and the floral resources, such as pollen mass, important to pollination in the "C. pepo" system.
