The Koenig Lab in the Department of Botany and Plant Sciences at the University of California-Riverside invites applicants for two fully funded postdoctoral research positions available immediately. Both positions will expand on current lab efforts to understand the evolution of plant genomes with a specific emphasis on plant adaptation to the environment. The candidate for the first position will aim to understand how fitness is encoded in plant genomes using a one of a kind series of long term agricultural experiments, the barley composite crosses (CCs). The CCs are common garden experiments where a diverse
