Resurrection #genomics provides molecular and phenotypic evidence of rapid adaptation to #salinization in a keystone aquatic species https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2217276120
They revived decades-old #Daphnia resting eggs from lake sediments. Tanners Lake has suffered significant salt #pollution, stemming from the widespread use of road deicing salts in its watershed.

Decades-old crustaceans coaxed from lake mud give up genetic secrets revealing evolution in action
Human actions are changing the environment at an unprecedented rate. Plant and animal populations must try to keep up with these human-accelerated changes, often by trying to rapidly evolve tolerance to changing conditions.Science X (Phys.org)
